How to Make 3 Cheese Spinach Roasted Red Pepper Calzones

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out pizza dough to a 12x12-inch square. Cut the dough into 4 equal squares.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, chopped spinach, roasted red peppers, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Place about 1/2 cup of the filling slightly off-center on each dough square.
  5. Fold one side of the dough square over the filling to meet the other side, forming a triangle.
  6. Gently round off the corners of the triangle to create a semi-circle. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal.
  7. Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the top of each calzone with the egg wash.
  8. Place calzones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from oven and let rest for 7 minutes before serving.
  10. Serve hot and enjoy!
