Ingredients
Scale
Dough and Filling
- 1 (13.8-ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough
- 6 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ pound breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
- ½ cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 green onions, sliced thin
Seasoning and Coating
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1-2 tablespoons water (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the stromboli to a perfect golden brown.
- Prepare Eggs: In a large skillet, scramble 6 large eggs until they are mostly cooked but still slightly runny for a moist and tender filling.
- Roll Dough: Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on parchment paper and stretch it out. Evenly spread 1 ½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the top half of the dough, leaving about an inch empty on each end to facilitate rolling.
- Add Fillings: Layer the scrambled eggs, cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage, crumbled bacon, and thinly sliced green onions over the cheese-covered area.
- Form Stromboli: Roll the dough tightly from the cheese side like a cinnamon roll, pinching the ends and seam securely to seal the fillings inside. Transfer the parchment paper with the stromboli onto a baking sheet.
- Apply Egg Wash: Combine 1 beaten egg with 1-2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to create an egg wash. Flip the stromboli seam-side down on the baking sheet and brush the top evenly with the egg wash to achieve a golden finish.
- Season and Bake: Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of Italian seasoning and ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder on top of the egg wash. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the stromboli is golden brown on top. Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Ensure the eggs are slightly runny before assembling to keep the filling moist.
- Bake on parchment paper for easy transfer and clean-up.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the stromboli carefully to avoid spillage of the filling.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven for a crispy crust.
- Customize with different cheeses or add vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for variation.
