Whole Wheat Calzones

By Tejal Hewitt @Tejal_x

Ingredients:
250g Strong Whole wheat flour
100g Strong Plain Flour
1 Sachet of fast acting Yeast
1 1/2 Tsp Olive Oil
250ml Warm water
1/2 Tsp Salt
Pizza sauce ( can of chopped tomato, basil, oregano, onion & garlic)
Pizza toppings of choice
Cheese

In a mixing bowl add flour, salt and yeast and mix

Add warm water and olive oil and knead well for at least 5 minutes.

Place the dough in a lightly floured bowl and cover with cling film.

Leave to prove in a warm place for about an hour until doubled in size.

Tip the dough onto a floured surface and knock out the air.

Knead briefly for about 2 minutes.

Using about half of the dough, roll out the dough to approximately 14inch circle. Place the dough off center on a baking tray.

Spread on the pizza sauce on half of the dough generously, keeping about 2 cm from the edge.

Top the calzone with fillings/topping of choice, I used spinach, sweetcorn, mushrooms, onions, peppers and tomatoes.

Sprinkle on the cheese, adding some to the edge where there is no sauce, as this will help seal the calzone

Fold over the other half of the dough

Fold and pinch in the dough edge to seal.

Sprinkle a little cheese over the top

Bake in the oven at 220c for 15-20 minutes.

It’s ready to serve, I added a little garlic herb cheesy sauce and some extra pizza sauce.

Enjoy this calzone, I must warm you – it was pretty big! Like Franke and Benny’s size!
