Ingredients

• 1 lb Pizza dough
• 1 cup Cooked ham, diced
• 1 cup Pineapple chunks (drained)
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Marinara sauce (for filling)
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 cup Marinara sauce (for dipping, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter and 1/4-inch thick.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced ham, pineapple chunks, shredded mozzarella cheese, and marinara sauce for the filling. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Place the filling on one half of the rolled-out dough, leaving about 1 inch of space along the edge to seal the calzone.

Step 5

Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to form a semicircle, pressing the edges together firmly to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for extra security.

Step 6

Transfer the calzone to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the surface with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife, make 2-3 small slits on the top of the calzone to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the calzone is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the calzone cool for a few minutes before slicing into portions.

Step 10

Serve warm with additional marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
