What You’ll Need
- For the gluten-free dough: 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3/4 cup warm water
- For the filling: 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled Italian sausage (optional)
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach or any veggies of your choice
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water and olive oil, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough into four equal pieces and roll each piece into a circle on a gluten-free floured surface. In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, Italian sausage, chopped veggies, and Italian seasoning.
Place a generous spoonful of the filling into the center of each dough circle. Carefully fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape, pinching the edges to seal the calzones. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the calzones are golden brown. Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free calzones warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping!
