Tremendous Cheesy Pepperoni Stromboli is a crowd-pleaser, packed with gooey cheese and savory pepperoni wrapped in golden dough. Here’s a fantastic recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce (optional for serving)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tbsp butter (melted)
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- Flour (for dusting)
- Marinara sauce (for dipping)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll Out the Dough:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
- Layer the Cheese and Pepperoni:
- Evenly spread the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Add a layer of pepperoni on top of the cheese. Sprinkle garlic powder, oregano, and basil over the top for extra flavor.
- Roll the Stromboli:
- Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a log shape, tucking in the ends as you go.
- Place the Stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush and Bake:
- Brush the top of the Stromboli with the beaten egg to give it a nice golden crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Finishing Touch:
- Once baked, brush the melted butter over the top and sprinkle with a little more garlic powder and Parmesan cheese.
- Slice and Serve:
- Let the Stromboli cool for a few minutes before slicing it into thick pieces.
- Serve with warm marinara or pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
