Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough
  • 3 Tablespoons butter melted, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella divided
  • 12 thin slices ham
  • 15 slices salami
  • 15-17 slices pepperoni
  • 1 egg beaten
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tablespoons chopped parsley
  • Marinara sauce for dipping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Lightly flour your workplace. Roll pizza dough into a rectangle about 12 x 14 inches. You can also roll it out onto a piece of parchment paper so you can put the paper straight into the oven without transferring the dough to a pan.
  • In a small bowl combine melted 1 Tbsp melted butter and minced garlic. Brush over the top of dough.
  • Sprinkle ½ c. mozzarella cheese on top of dough, leaving a 1-2 inches around one of the long edges and the two short ends.
  • Top the cheese with ham. Sprinkle with the another ½ c. Mozzarella cheese on top of ham. Next, add the pieces of salami and pepperoni. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top of the pepperoni.
  • In a small bowl beat the egg with a fork. Use a brush to coat the 3 exposed edges of the dough (where you left the cheese off, think short, short, long).
  • Next, carefully roll up the long edge of your stromboli jelly roll style. Start with the long edge that DOES NOT have the egg wash. Roll it tightly so it stays together. Seal the seam with wet fingertips. Then roll the stromboli so the seam is facing down. You may need to tuck the sides of the dough under so it’s sealed.
  • Transfer to baking sheet or pizza stone.
  • In a small bowl combine the remaining 2 Tbsp melted butter, garlic powder, parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Brush the top of the stromboli with butter mixture. Using a sharp serrated knife make shallow diagonal cuts on top of stromboli every 2 inches.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let set 5 minutes. Using a serrated knife cut into 8 slices.
  • Serve with warm marinara sauce.

Notes

  • This Pizza Dough (linked in ingredients) makes two pizza doughs, so if you use that recipe only use half of it for this recipe. Freeze the other half for later or make two Stromboli and freeze one.
  • If your Stromboli is browning to quickly place in bottom half of oven away from heat source or cover with tinfoil.
Prep Ahead of Time!
  • If you want to make this ahead of time you can! Once the dough is rolled up, wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Before baking brush with butter mixture and place in the preheated oven. Since it is cold you might have to add 5-10 minutes of cooking time. 
How to Freeze!
  • From fresh - After making the it you can freeze it raw. You will need to simply wrap it up in plastic wrap then foil and place it in the freezer. When you are ready to use it, place it in the fridge to thaw before baking. Then bake according to directions. It will be cold at this time so you might have to add 5-10 minutes of baking time.
  • Par-Baked - Another option is to par-bake the Stromboli before placing it in the freezer. After prepping it bake it for 5-7 minutes then cool, wrap in plastic wrap and then foil. Place it in the freezer. When you are ready to use simply place it in the oven and bake.
