RECIPE OF THE WEEK!

Very Easy Stromboli

Dough

1 cup water, 75-85 degrees
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 teaspoons fast rise yeast

Fillings

5-6 slices provolone cheese
20 slices thinly sliced pepperoni, more or less to taste
12-14 slices hot ham
  1. Select settings for your bread machine for dough.
  2. Add liquid ingredients to pan.
  3. Add dry ingredients, except yeast, to pan.
  4. Tap pan to settle dry ingredients, pushing some of the mixture into corners.
  5. Make a well in center of dry ingredients; add yeast.
  6. Lock pan into bread maker.
  7. Program for dough.
  8. Program timer if used.
  9. Start bread maker.
  10. When done, unlock pan from bread maker.
  11. Place dough onto floured surface.
  12. Cut in 2 pieces for thick crust, 3 pieces for thinner crust.
  13. Roll out to 2 or 3 14 x 8 rectangles, place the 6 slices of provolone cheese along one edge of each rectangle overlapping each slice enough to run the 14 inch length of crust.
  14. Place 3 rows of pepperoni along 14 inch edge overlapping each slice by 1/2.
  15. be sure to leave 2-3 inches along opposite edge free of filling so when you roll up it will make a good seal.
  16. roll to make a 14 inch loaf making sure to not wrap tightly.
  17. Place diagonal slices accross top about every 2 inches to vent.
  18. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
  19. Place on oven broiler pan greased (no Foil) so any oil from pepperoni can run to bottom pan not soaking into crust.
my comments: this recipe produced the lightest, most delicious stromboli dough i have ever used and was so super easy in the bread machine! i used pepperoni and mozzarella cheese in mine, with some italian seasonings and i brushed egg whites over the rolls before baking- i got 2 rolls out of this recipe. i brought it to a bridal shower and everyone raved about it-- i got this recipe off of recipezaar- check my review-- Recipe #20395
