Ingredients
- 1/2 to 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 envelope Fleischmann's® Pizza Crust Yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup very warm water (120° to 130°F)*
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Favorite fillings
Preparation
Step 1
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Cover and let rest on floured surface while preparing fillings.
To make calzones, divide dough into four portions. Roll 1 portion into an 8-inch circle on a floured surface. Spread desired fillings on bottom half of dough, leaving outer 1/2-inch free of filling. Fold top half of dough over filling. Pull edge of lower crust over top; folding and pressing layers together to form a seal. Carefully transfer to greased baking sheet. Cut 3 to 4 vents in top. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until lightly browned. Transfer to cooling rack to keep bottom crust crisp while cooling slightly. Serve with pizza sauce or other sauce for dipping.
