You can create your own fillings for this very easy calzone. I don't use the pepperoni, but substitute cooked, chopped spinach. You can also add sauteed onions and peppers, olives, ricotta cheese...etc. I have also made small individual calzones to dip in Marinara Sauce...heaven! Kids love these.

EASY CALZONE DOUGH (BREAD MACHINE)



Easy Calzone Dough (Bread Machine) image

My personal favorite bread machine dough for my calzone. A great set it and forget it recipe. Enjoy! Also, if you don't plan on cooking right away, the dough will stay for up to six days in the chill chest. Simply take the unused dough (after rising) and story in a ziplock bag, sprayed in the inside with some cooking spray.

BREAD MACHINE CALZONE CRUST RECIPE



Bread Machine Calzone Crust Recipe image

Provided by 1C_Z

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons yeast
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups bread flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon powdered milk

Steps:

  • Mix ingredients in bread machine on dough cycle. Preheat oven to 350°F. Shape dough into a 16x10-inch rectangle and add sauce and toppings. Bake in 350°F oven for 34 to 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before beginning, as this will help the yeast activate properly and result in a better rise.
  • If you don't have a bread machine, you can still make the dough by hand. Combine the ingredients in a large bowl and knead for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will help to create a light and airy crust.
  • When shaping the calzones, be sure to leave enough space for the filling. You don't want the calzones to be too full, or they will burst open during baking.
  • Bake the calzones at a high temperature (400°F) for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown. This will help to create a crispy crust.

Conclusion:

Bread machine calzone crust is a quick and easy way to make delicious calzones at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a light and airy crust that is perfect for filling with your favorite toppings. Whether you're making them for a party or a weeknight meal, bread machine calzone crust is sure to be a hit.
