Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup water (warm (95–110 degrees F))
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/3 cup marinara sauce
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1/2 cup pepperoni (sliced)
- 1/2 cup deli ham (sliced)
- 1½ cups mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/8 teaspoon crushed red peppers
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir and let sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until frothy and bubbly.
- Add the olive oil, salt and about 1½ cups of flour. Using the dough hook, mix on low speed until combined. Gradually add the remaining flour, about a 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough pulls away from the edges of the bowl.
- Knead with the dough hook for another 1-2 minutes, or by hand until smooth and elastic. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and shape the dough into a ball. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 15-30 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. and grease a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a large rectangle about 10″ x 14″. If it resists, let it rest for 5 minutes and try again.
- Layer your fillings over the dough leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges starting with the marinara sauce, Parmesan cheese, pepperoni, ham, mozzarella cheese, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper.
- Carefully roll up the dough from the long edge into a tight log. Pinch the seam and ends to seal. Place the seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the water and the egg. Use a pastry brush to brush the egg mixture all over the stromboli. Sprinkle on the grated Parmesan cheese, then cut 3″ slits on the top of the stromboli, about 1½” apart.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 18-25 minutes, or until golden and the internal temperature of the stromboli is 200 degrees F.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure the water temperature is correct to activate the yeast.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for the best results.
