Part 6/7:
Place the stromboli on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown. Cooking times may vary based on the size and initial temperature of your stromboli, so keep an eye on it as it bakes.
Once done, allow the stromboli to rest for five to ten minutes. This cooling time is essential; it prevents hot cheese from spilling out upon cutting.
Ready to Enjoy: Cutting and Serving
Slice the stromboli into approximately one-inch thick pieces. It’s a dish that not only feeds the family but can also serve as a delightful appetizer for gatherings. Paired with marinara sauce for dipping, the dish caters to various preferences, with alternatives like pizza sauce or ranch dressing available for those who desire something different.
