Directions
-
Heat water until warm (about 110ðF), then dissolve sugar and yeast in the water. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
-
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and melted butter/margarine. Mix until a dough forms.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
-
Punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, approximately 12x18 inches.
-
Spread your chosen filling (meat/cheese, spinach, or three-cheese mixture) evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
-
Roll the dough up tightly from the long side, sealing the edges firmly. Pinch the ends to seal.
-
Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
-
Bake at 375ðF (190ðC) for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
