Instructions

3. Spread cheese and fillings evenly over the dough, leaving space at the edges.

6. Sprinkle sesame seeds or herbs and bake until golden brown and crisp.

Notes
- Do not overfill the dough, as too much filling can cause leaks while baking.
- Use low-moisture ingredients to keep the Stromboli crisp and not soggy.
- Seal all edges tightly to hold the filling inside during baking.
- Let the baked Stromboli rest before slicing for clean cuts.
- You can customize the fillings to suit your taste and preference.
- Brushing butter after baking adds extra flavor and softness.
