Ingredients
Scale
1 pound of pizza dough
1 cup of ricotta cheese
1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup of salami or pepperoni (optional)
1 cup of spinach (fresh or frozen)
1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 beaten egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
If using store-bought pizza dough, let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften it. If making homemade dough, ensure it has been adequately risen and kneaded.
Set your air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Allowing it to preheat ensures that the calzones cook evenly.
In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, salami (if using), spinach, and Italian seasoning. Mix thoroughly until fully blended.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large circle about ¼ inch thick. Divide the dough into equal halves or quarters as desired.
Place a generous amount of the filling on one half of the dough circle. Fold the other half over and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
Brush the tops of the calzones with the beaten egg or vegan alternative.
Carefully place the calzones in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching, and cook for 12-15 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
Once cooked, allow to cool for a minute before serving hot with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
