Cheeseburger Calzones Recipes

CHEESEBURGER CALZONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in ketchup, mustard and onion.
• In small bowl, stir Bisquick mix and boiling water with fork until dough forms. Divide dough into fourths. On surface sprinkled with Bisquick mix, roll dough pieces in Bisquick mix to coat. Press each piece into 6-inch round, 1/4 inch thick.
• Spoon 1/4 cup beef mixture onto one side of each dough round to within 1/2 inch of edges. Top beef on each round with 1/4 cup cheese and 3 pickle slices. Fold dough in half, covering filling. Press edges with tines of fork to seal.
• On ungreased cookie sheet, place calzones. Brush with egg; sprinkle with sesame seed. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

BACON CHEESEBURGER CALZONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• If you are making your pizza dough, allow it to rise. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large frying pan, cook the ground beef and onions together over medium heat. Drain any excess fat from the pan. Add in the cooked bacon, shredded cheese, ketchup, mustard and relish. Stir until well combined.
• Divide pizza dough up so there are 6 portions total. Roll each piece of dough into circles approximately 7 inchs in diameter. Divide the filling between each of the dough sections, placing filling to one side of the circle. Fold the dough over filling and crimp the edges to seal.
• Cut a few slits on the top of the calzones. Place the calzones on the lined cookie sheet.
• In a small dish, mix the egg and 1 tbsp of water to create an egg wash. Brush this mixture over the calzone and sprinkle the sesame seeds overtop of the egg wash.
• Cook the calzones in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until a golden brown. Allow to cool a bit before serving.
