Serves:
Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp of instant yeast
- 1 tsp of salt
- 1 cup of warm water
- 2 cups of fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup of marinara sauce
- 1/2 tsp of dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp of garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp of black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Gradually add in the warm water while mixing until a dough forms.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise for 1 hour.
-
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
-
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece into a circle.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the chopped spinach, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, marinara sauce, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper.
-
Spoon the spinach and cheese mixture onto one half of each dough circle, leaving a border. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal.
-
Transfer the calzones onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg wash.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the calzones turn golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
-
Enjoy these unbelievably delicious spinach calzones!
