Ham Calzones image

Not your usual red tomato sauce calzone. This recipe came from my mother who had clipped it out of a magazine eons ago. This has been a family favorite since I can remember! With simple alterations to recipe, I'm sure you can add any of your favorite ingredients!

Categories     Ham

Time 1h

Yield 10 Calzones

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 2/3 cups ricotta cheese
10 ounces boneless ham, chopped
6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (more or less for taste)
2 loaves frozen bread dough, thawed and risen
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Stir ricotta cheese, ham, mozzarella cheese, and pepper until well blended.
  • Take each loaf of bread and either tear or cut into five pieces.
  • Flatten each piece of bread into a 5" circle.
  • (This part is tricky and with practice, it gets easier. I usually just use my hands to stretch the dough into a circle).
  • Place about a 1/4-1/2 C filling in center of bread and fold to one side.
  • Seal edges together by squeezing.
  • Place calzones on cookie sheets and brush with vegetable oil.
  • Cook for 30-40 minutes until golden brown.
  • Enjoy!
