About

I love pizza but thinking about cleaning all of the loose cheese at the bottom of the air fryer sounded like more hassle than it’s worth. Then it hit me, why not try a calzone? After all, it’s basically an enclosed pizza! So I tried one of my favorite pizzas in a calzone and the rest is history.

Method

Directions

In a medium bowl, combine the water, sugar, and yeast. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes, once foamy and fragrant, add the oil, salt, and flour. Stir the mixture until a dough forms. Transfer the dough to a clean, greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
