Ingredients

• 2 pounds Pizza dough
• 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Marinara sauce
• 1 cup Pepperoni slices
• 1 cup Cooked Italian sausage, crumbled
• 1 cup Mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup Bell peppers, diced
• 1 cup Onions, diced
• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cup Black olives, sliced
• 1 Egg, beaten
• 0.25 cup Flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.

Step 2

Dust your countertop lightly with flour. Divide the pizza dough into 8 equal portions.

Step 3

Roll each portion into a rough circle, about 6 inches in diameter. Set rolled dough aside.

Step 4

Set up a calzone bar station with all the fillings in separate bowls: shredded mozzarella, marinara sauce, pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, spinach, and black olives.

Step 5

Take one circle of dough and spoon about 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce into the center, spreading it out slightly but leaving a 1-inch border.

Step 6

Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella on top of the marinara sauce and add desired fillings. Be careful not to overfill to ensure the calzone seals properly.

Step 7

Fold the dough over the fillings to create a half-moon shape. Pinch the edges together firmly and crimp using your fingers or a fork to seal completely.

Step 8

Repeat the process for the remaining dough circles.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space in between each one.

Step 10

Brush the tops of the calzones lightly with beaten egg to give them a golden, glossy finish.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the calzones are golden brown and puffed up.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Step 13

Serve warm with extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
