Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle measuring approximately 12x16 inches.
  3. Spread a generous layer of marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle a thick layer of grated mozzarella cheese over the marinara sauce.
  5. Layer on your chosen meats and olives, spreading them evenly over the cheese.
  6. Starting from one long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log shape and pinch the seam to seal.
  7. Place the rolled Stromboli seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Whisk an egg and brush it liberally over the top of the Stromboli.
  9. Bake the Stromboli in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, until golden and puffy.
