→ For Serving
12 -
Marinara sauce for dipping on the side
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat up your oven to 375°F (190°C) so the crust bakes evenly till golden.
02 -
Dust a surface lightly with flour and spread the dough out carefully into a rectangular shape, about 12 x 14 inches. Using parchment underneath can make it simpler.
03 -
Stir a tablespoon of melted butter with the minced garlic in a small dish. Spread it all over the rolled-out dough using a brush.
04 -
Spread ½ cup mozzarella evenly onto the dough but leave an inch or two free along one side and on both short edges. Next, layer with ham, sprinkle another ½ cup of mozzarella, and then arrange salami followed by pepperoni before finishing with the rest of the cheese.
05 -
Brush the long bare edge and short ends with beaten egg. Roll the dough up tightly, starting on the non-egg-washed side, like a jelly roll. Seal the seam by pinching it and fold the ends to close them.
06 -
Mix 2 tablespoons of leftover melted butter with garlic powder, Parmesan, and parsley. Brush this over the surface of the roll. With a sharp serrated knife, cut light diagonal slashes every couple of inches across the top.
07 -
Place the roll onto a baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake it for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top turns a lovely crispy gold-brown.
08 -
Let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice it into 8 pieces. Pair it with warm marinara sauce and enjoy dipping each slice.
# Notes:
01 -
To stop the dough from shrinking, let it come to room temp before rolling it out.
02 -
Prep ahead by assembling it completely and storing in the fridge for up to 4 hours before baking.
