Recipes Main Courses Cakes and Desserts
The Ham Stromboli is the 'Little Black Dress' of savory baking: simple, elegant, and perfect for any occasion. The savory ham provides a solid base softened by the mild mozzarella. This recipe uses a quick, baking powder dough—a time-saving alternative to yeast dough that still delivers a crispy crust.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Rub in butter, then add egg and water. Mix quickly.

Tip: Do not over-knead; just mix until combined to keep it tender.
2 ✓

Roll out to a rectangle on a floured board.

Tip: Aim for even thickness for even baking.
3 ✓

Layer ham and cheese, leaving borders clear.

Tip: Tear ham into smaller pieces for easier slicing later.
4 ✓

Roll tightly, seal ends. Place on lined sheet.

Tip: If rolled loosely, air pockets will form.
5 ✓

Brush top thinly with olive oil for a glossy finish.

Tip: Oil helps browning and adds flavor.
6 ✓

Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Rest 5 minutes.

Tip: Cutting too soon makes the cheese run out.
