Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl (Used for mixing dough ingredients.)

  • Parchment paper (Prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.)
  • Pastry brush (For applying egg wash to the dough.)
  • Sharp Knife/Pizza Cutter (To slice the baked stromboli into portions.)
  • Small bowls (For organizing ingredients and egg wash.)

Ingredients

  • teaspoons Active Dry Yeast - 1 packet

  • 8 oz Mozzarella Cheese (shredded)
  • ¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning

Instructions

  • Combine yeast, warm water, and honey in a small bowl. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
