This Wholesome Calzone recipe is not only easy to make, but it is also very easy to improvise with just use your creativity. You can choose any filling you want, from savoury to sweet, you decide!

Because my authenticity comes from Ukraine, the bakery is big for me. I thoroughly enjoy making up all sorts of recipes from that category.

A little tip, once Calzone is baked, take it out of the oven and either leave it plain or brush it with some butter. Either or chuck it back to the oven for 5 minutes just before you eat it, as it will crisp it up a bit more!

Serve it with salad or on its own, it’s totally up to you! I enjoy it with rukola salad with some pear and toasted walnuts drizzled with some olive oil and balsamic, which definitely brings me back to the Italian coast!

Enjoy
