Homemade Stromboli Recipe

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Servings: 4-6


Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450g) pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce (optional, for dipping)
  • 1/2 lb (225g) sliced provolone or mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 lb (225g) deli meats (e.g., salami, pepperoni, ham)
  • 1/2 cup sautéed vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, mushrooms, or onions; optional)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Dough
    • Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle (about 10×14 inches).
  3. Layer the Fillings
    • Place the cheese slices evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
    • Add the deli meats in an even layer.
    • If using sautéed vegetables, distribute them evenly on top.
  4. Roll the Stromboli
    • Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam and ends to seal.
  5. Transfer to Baking Sheet
    • Place the Stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Add the Egg Wash and Seasoning
    • Brush the top with beaten egg. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
  7. Bake
    • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and fully cooked.
  8. Rest and Slice
    • Let the Stromboli cool for 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick pieces.

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve warm with marinara or garlic butter for dipping.
  • Pair with a side salad for a complete meal.
