Ingredients
  

Dough
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water about 110°F
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
Filling
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup marinara sauce for dipping

Method
 

Prepare the Dough
  1. In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil, then knead until smooth.
  3. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Assemble the Calzones
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Once the dough has risen, divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a circle.
  3. On one half of each circle, layer mozzarella, pepperoni, ricotta, and Italian seasoning. Fold the dough over and seal the edges.
  4. Brush the tops with olive oil and make a few slits for steam to escape.
Cook the Calzones
  1. Place the calzones in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching.
  2. Cook for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
