Baked panzerotti better than fried ones. Try them!

Today’s recipe is for fun and delicious panzerotti filled, among other things, with mozzarella, cherry tomatoes and cooked ham.

Let’s see how they prepare.

Delicious baked panzerotti: you make them out of the oven in 15 minutes!

The ingredients

For the dough : 500 grams of flour; 250 milliliters of water; 4 grams of yeast; an egg; 60 milliliters of oil; just enough salt; 20 grams of sugar.

For the filling : 100 grams of mozzarella; 100 grams of cherry tomatoes; 20 milliliters of olive oil; enough of oregano; four anchovies; 150 grams of cooked ham; 150 grams of mozzarella; 20 milliliters of olive oil.

The preparation

We take a boule, break the egg into it and beat it with a hand whisk. Then we add 250 milliliters of water, 4 grams of yeast and 20 grams of sugar, after which we mix everything with a whisk.

Once the ingredients have been incorporated, add the oil (60 millilitres) and the salt and mix again vigorously. Then we add the flour and this time we mix with our hands.

When the dough acquires a good compactness, we press it on the bottom of the boule and then let it rest covered with a cloth for thirty minutes.

After half an hour, the dough will have risen: now transfer it onto a pastry board and knead it with your hands for a few minutes until you have a sort of loaf about fifty centimeters long.

At this point we cut it into seven or eight pieces, each of which we give the shape of a scoop which we then crush with our hands and reduce more or less to the size and thickness of a pizza.

At this point, place the cooked ham and the pieces of mozzarella on the “pizza”, then close the dough around the filling, creating a crescent that we seal well around the edges with our fingertips, doubling the edges.

Obviously we repeat the operation with all the other pieces of dough, but this time perhaps adding some cherry tomatoes cut into wedges, oregano, oil, mozzarella and anchovies.

Now we place our wonderful panzerotti on two baking trays, brush them with oil, sprinkle them with a little oregano and then put them in the oven at 180 degrees for a quarter of an hour.

After 15 minutes, you will find an authentic marvel in your hands.

Enjoy your meal!
