Ingredients

For the Dough

  • 2 cups Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
  • 1 tbsp Granulated Sugar
  • 2 1/4 tsp Instant Yeast
  • 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
  • 3/4 tsp Salt
  • 3/4 cup Warm Water
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 large Egg

For the Filling

  • 1 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 cups Fresh Baby Spinach, chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Marinara Sauce for serving

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together gluten free flour, sugar, instant yeast, xanthan gum, and salt. Add warm water, olive oil, and egg. Mix until a soft dough forms. Cover and let rise in a warm spot for 30 minutes.
  • While dough rises, prepare the filling by mixing ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, chopped spinach, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. On a sheet of parchment paper dusted with gluten free flour, pat each piece into a 7-inch round.
  • Place about 1/3 cup of filling on one half of each round, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Fold the dough over the filling and press the edges firmly to seal, then crimp with a fork. Place on the baking sheet and cut 2 small slits on top of each calzone.
  • Brush tops with olive oil and bake for 20 to 22 minutes until golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes and serve with warm marinara sauce.
