Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough
- 1 package of pizza dough (about 1 lb)
For the Filling
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella or cheddar recommended)
- 1 cup cooked meat (such as sausage, bacon, or ham), chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped onions or bell peppers, herbs (oregano, basil)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt and pepper. Cook the eggs in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softly scrambled. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. Mix in the cooked meat and shredded cheese evenly.
- Prepare the Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle approximately 12×8 inches.
- Fill the Dough: Spoon the egg, cheese, and meat mixture evenly onto the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
- Roll the Stromboli: Starting from the long edge, carefully roll the dough over the filling to form a tight log. Pinch the edges together to seal the seams and ends.
- Bake: Place the stromboli seam side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Optionally, brush the top with an egg wash (1 beaten egg) for a golden crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the stromboli to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your hearty breakfast stromboli.
Notes
- You can customize the stromboli by adding veggies like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers to the filling.
- Using pre-cooked meat ensures even cooking and prevents sogginess.
- Egg wash on top helps create a shiny, brown crust.
- Store leftovers wrapped in foil in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat in the oven for best results.
- Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife for clean slices.
