Servings

Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 ounce fresh yeast
- 2 tablespoon nutella
- 2 tablespoon ricotta cheese
Directions
- In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the water, and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir the salt and oil into the yeast solution. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of the flour. Turn dough out onto a clean, well-floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Place the dough into a well-oiled bowl, and cover with a cloth. Let the dough rise until it doubles in size; this should take about 1 hour. Punch down the dough, and form a tight ball. Allow the dough to relax for a minute before rolling out. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Stretch out the dough.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together Nutella and ricotta cheese.
- Place the filling on 1/3 of the dough; leaving the other 2/3 to form the cover. Press the dough tightly closed and cut off any excess. Place in oven as soon as ready.
- Bake calzone in preheated oven, until the crust is golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Finish with some powdered sugar or cocoa powder, as desired.
