Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking by the time you’ve assembled the Stromboli.

Step 2: Roll Out the Pizza Dough

Open the tube of Pillsbury pizza dough and roll it out onto a flat surface. Lightly flour your work surface to prevent the dough from sticking, and use a rolling pin to stretch the dough into a rectangle, approximately 12 x 15 inches.

Step 3: Layer the Meats and Cheese

Start by layering the slices of deli ham evenly across the pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Next, add the slices of Genoa salami on top of the ham, followed by the sandwich pepperoni. Finally, place the slices of provolone or mozzarella cheese evenly across the top of the meats. If you’re using shredded cheese, sprinkle it generously over the top.

Step 4: Roll the Stromboli

Carefully start rolling the Stromboli from one of the shorter ends, tucking the ingredients tightly as you go. Roll it all the way to the other end, making sure the seam side is down when you place the rolled Stromboli on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Tuck the ends under to seal them, and press down gently to keep everything secure.

Step 5: Apply the Egg Wash and Seasoning

Brush the entire Stromboli with the beaten egg using a pastry brush. This will give the Stromboli a golden, shiny crust. Sprinkle the top with Italian seasoning and a pinch of garlic powder for an extra burst of flavor.

Step 6: Bake the Stromboli

Place the Stromboli in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on it to prevent overbaking or burning the edges. You’ll know it’s ready when the crust is deeply golden and firm to the touch.

Step 7: Let it Cool and Slice

Once the Stromboli is finished baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. This makes it easier to slice. After it has cooled slightly, use a sharp knife to slice the Stromboli into 1-inch pieces.
