Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons Instant dry yeast
- 1.25 cups Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Cooked Italian sausage or pepperoni (optional)
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
Instructions
Prepare the dough: In a bread machine, add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, salt, sugar, and instant dry yeast. Pour in the warm water, olive oil, and eggs.
Set the bread machine to the 'dough' setting and let it knead and rise, which should take about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough is ready, divide it into 4 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface (using gluten-free flour), roll each portion into an 8-inch circle.
Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and cooked Italian sausage or pepperoni if using.
Spread 1/4 cup of pizza sauce on one half of each dough circle, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Add 1/4 of the cheese mixture on top of the sauce for each calzone, being careful not to overfill.
Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together and crimp with a fork to seal.
Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with a little olive oil or an egg wash for added color.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Let the calzones cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
