What is Stromboli?
Stromboli is almost like a rolled-up pizza that’s baked and sliced. It’s different from a calzone which often contains ricotta cheese and is most often folded in half.
- You can customize it with your favorite meats and pizza toppings.
- Stromboli is easy to make and bake for a quick dinner.
- Everyone loves it, perfect for game day snacking or a Friday night dinner.
Ingredients in Stromboli
Crust – In this shortcut version, we start with a roll of store-bought pizza dough. If you have time homemade pizza dough is delicious in this recipe too.
Sauce – Use either marinara sauce or pizza sauce. You can add additional seasonings like oregano or garlic.
Toppings – Add your favorite meats like pepperoni, salami, or ham. I add a generous amount of mozzarella cheese – feel free to sprinkle in some parmesan for flavor.
Vegetables – Add your favorite pizza veggies like mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, black olives, or jalapenos. Cook and cool all of the vegetables to remove excess moisture.
How to Make Stromboli
- Roll out the pizza dough and top it with sauce, add toppings and cheese per the recipe below.
- Roll the stromboli into a log, brush with egg wash, and bake until golden brown.
- Slice and serve. Buon appetito!
Got Leftovers?
Keep leftover stromboli in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat portions in the microwave or air fryer.
Freeze leftover stromboli by wrapping the slices in plastic wrap and then putting them in a zippered bag. They’ll be thawed and ready to eat or reheat by lunchtime!

Stromboli Recipe
This easy Stromboli recipe starts with refrigerated pizza dough and is loaded with all the classic pizza toppings!
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough into a rectangle approximately 12×16-inches.
-
Spread the marinara sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border all around the edges and a 3-inch border at the long side furthest from you.
-
Sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella over the marinara sauce, then add the ham, salami, and pepperoni. Finish with the remaining cheese.
-
Roll up the pizza dough tightly, being careful not to push out the toppings. Stop just before reaching the end.
-
In a small bowl, whisk the egg, water, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Brush the mixture over the pizza dough where the edges will meet, then pinch them together.
-
Place the stromboli, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet with the seal facing down and brush with the egg wash.
-
Bake for 24-28 minutes until golden brown and slightly puffed. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Stromboli can be brushed with melted butter or garlic butter in place of oil.
