Recipe type: Italian, pizza
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 1 ball or roll of pizza dough (I used homemade, but store bought works well, too)
  • 1 lb Italian sausage
  • 1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 (3 oz) pkg. sliced pepperoni
  • 2 c. pizza sauce
  • 1 c. Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • ½ t. Italian seasoning
Instructions
  1. Cook Italian sausage in a medium skillet until browned. Drain.
  2. Heat oven to 450 degrees.
  3. Place parchment paper on a large baking pan and lightly flour. Roll dough out to form a large rectangle.
  4. Brush a thin layer of pizza sauce on dough. Layer on crumbled sausage then mozzarella cheese.
  5. Place pepperoni slices on top of cheese then sprinkle with ¾c. Parmesan cheese and Italian seasonings.
  6. Gently roll in short sides of dough to form a seal around filling.
  7. Starting on long side of dough, carefully roll into one third of Stromboli. Using parchment, roll dough again until reaching opposite end. Pinch together and place seam side down.
  8. Mix egg with 1 T. of water. Brush egg mixture over Stromboli and sprinkle with remaining ¼ Parmesan cheese.
  9. Place in oven and turn down to 375 degrees.
  10. Bake for approximately 18 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes
  11. Serve with warm pizza sauce.
