Calzones are a delicious Italian-American dish that is often enjoyed as a hearty meal that is easy to eat on-the-go. This recipe takes traditional calzones up a notch by using a wheat-free, gluten-free crust that is easy to make in a bread machine. The crust is light and chewy, with a slightly crispy exterior that adds crunch to each bite. Filled with a rich, cheesy filling and spicy pepperoni, these calzones are a perfect meal for any time of the day. Whether you are following a gluten-free diet or just looking for a new twist on a classic recipe, these calzones are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.

Instructions

1.Combine the water with the olive oil in the pan of a bread machine.
2.In a bowl, whisk together the brown rice flour, cornstarch, potato starch, tapioca flour, sorghum flour, xanthan gum, granulated sugar, salt, and active dry yeast.
3.Pour the flour mixture into the bread machine pan, and mix with the wet ingredients. Knead the dough using the bread machine’s knead function.
4.While the dough is being kneaded, mix the ricotta and mozzarella cheeses together in a bowl.
5.Preheat the oven to 400°F.
6.Once the dough is ready, remove it from the bread machine and divide it into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and flatten it into a 6-inch disc.
7.Spoon the cheese mixture onto one side of each disc, leaving a margin of about 1/2-inch around the edge.
8.Season with salt and pepper, then add a layer of pepperoni. Fold the other side of the dough over the filling, and press the edges to seal.
9.Bake the calzones on a parchment-lined baking sheet for about 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden-brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
