A delicious and easy-to-make Stromboli recipe, perfect for any occasion.
Prepare the dough using a bread machine, adding the liquid ingredients first, followed by the dry ingredients, and finally the yeast.
Ensure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly.
Once the dough is ready, place it on a floured surface and divide it into two equal portions.
Use a sharp knife to make clean cuts when dividing the dough.
Roll out each portion into a rectangle approximately 14x8 inches.
Roll evenly to ensure a uniform thickness.
Layer the provolone cheese, ham, and pepperoni on one side of each rectangle, leaving a border for sealing.
Overlap the slices slightly to ensure even coverage.
Roll the dough tightly to enclose the filling, pinching the edges to seal.
Seal the edges well to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
Place the Stromboli on a greased baking sheet and make diagonal slits on top for venting.
The slits allow steam to escape, preventing the crust from becoming soggy.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30-40 minutes until golden brown.
Check halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
Let the Stromboli cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Cooling helps the filling set, making it easier to slice.
