Ingredients

-
1 teaspoon honey or sugar

- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ cup butter, (melted and cooled slightly)
- 3 tablespoons butter, (melted and cooled slightly)

Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the yeast, 1/2 cup warm water and the honey or sugar. Stir to combine. Set aside allow the yeast to activate for 5 minutes. The mixture should be creamy and bubbly.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Form a well in the middle of the flour and add the yeast mixture along with 1/4 cup melted butter. Using your hand like a claw, slowly begin mixing the flour into the liquid, adding more water as needed, until a soft, shaggy dough is formed. It may not take all of the water. Pour the mixture out onto a clean lightly floured surface and begin kneading the dough for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. All the dough to rest and rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a large oven-safe skillet or 13x9-inch baking dish by rubbing with half a tablespoon butter or olive oil.
- Punch down the dough. Lightly flour a clean surface and place the dough on the board. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to an approximate 20 by 14-inch rectangle, with the longest side facing you. Brush the dough with the 3 tablespoons melted butter. Sprinkle the surface evenly with the salami, provolone and parmesan cheese. Starting from the long edge furthest from you, roll the dough towards you, into a firm log.
- Using a serrated knife, cut the log into 16 even slices. Place them into your prepared baking dish. With either a pastry brush or your fingers, lightly dab the beaten egg on the exposed dough for the egg wash.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown on the edges. Serve warm.

@Sarah, we’ve never tried it, but it certainly could! Let us know how it turns out!
Do you think this could be done with a gluten-free pizza dough?
I made these for our Easter Sunday brunch, they are easy to make and turned out beautiful. Everyone enjoyed them, I will definitely be making them again.
