Ingredients

2 balls pizza dough
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1/2 cup ricotta
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 1/3 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 (6 ounce) bag pepperoni*
8 slices deli ham
1 egg+1 tbsp water beaten
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tbsp grated parmesan
1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped(optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Line a standard-size baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
Roll each ball of dough into a large and narrow rectangle (about 18x7 inches) on a lightly floured surface.
Divide the sauce evenly between the dough, spreading it over the top, leaving about 1 inch from the edge.
Divide the toppings evenly, and top each with ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella, pepperoni, and ham.
Roll up the dough like a cinnamon roll, pinch the edges to seal, and fold where the seam is.
Fold under the ends. Transfer the stromboli to the prepared baking sheet (laying them side by side, seam side down, with at least 4 inches between them). Brush with the beaten egg mixture, then using a sharp knife, cut small slits in the top.
Place in the oven and bake for 14-18 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and brush with olive oil and top with parmesan and parsley. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

*Or 6 oz. of sliced pepperoni.

To STORE Homemade Pepperoni Stromboli, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. For longer storage, FREEZE the stromboli in an airtight container for up to 2 months.

To REHEAT, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the stromboli for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. You can also microwave individual slices on high for 1-2 minutes, though the crust may lose some crispness.
