Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sourdough discard (unfed, room temperature)
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 oz sliced salami
- 4 oz sliced pepperoni
- 4 oz sliced ham
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Marinara sauce for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix sourdough discard, warm water, yeast, sugar, flour, salt, and olive oil. Knead until a soft dough forms, about 8–10 minutes.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured surface.
- Layer salami, pepperoni, and ham evenly over the dough, leaving a border.
- Sprinkle with mozzarella, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning.
- Carefully roll the dough lengthwise into a log, tucking in the sides. Place seam side down on the baking sheet.
- Brush with beaten egg for a golden crust. Optionally, cut small slits on top to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
- Cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with marinara sauce if desired.
Notes
- You can customize fillings with veggies or different cheeses.
- Make it ahead and refrigerate before baking for convenience.
