You can mix by hand with a wooden spoon or use a stand mixer to prepare the dough. It will be shaggy and rough at first.

The dough will need two rising periods. Plan ahead so that you have enough time to let the dough develop.

Punch the dough in the center to deflate it. Such fun! Next, you'll divide the dough into smaller pieces.

Use a rolling pin to roll out each circle of dough.  Fill half of the space with fillings then fold over.

Fold the dough over the fillings then gently close the edges. Press firmly to seal.

Make a few slices into the calzone. Brush with egg wash then bake.
