Instructions

    1.
    At least 4 hours before you want to bake your calzone, make the Fathead Dough. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder. Whisk an egg together and pour only half of it into the almond flour. Save the remaining half in your refrigerator for later. Set the bowl aside. In a pot over low heat, melt the mozzarella and cream cheese together until you have a smooth, creamy, melted cheese.
    2.
    Let the melted cheese cool for 30 seconds off the stove. Then, mix the melted cheese into the almond flour bowl. Mix and need the wet dough until all the yellow and white streaks are gone. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and cool in your refrigerator for at least 4 hours before continuing.
    3.
    After chilling the dough, preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Roll the Fathead Dough out between two sheets of parchment paper into a thin, -inch thick circle. On just half the circle, spread the marinara sauce into a thin layer. On top of marinara, sprinkle the oregano and arrange slices of pepperoni and chunky pieces of goat cheese.
    4.
    Add fresh arugula on top and use the parchment paper to lift the bare end of the Fathead Dough and wrap it over the ingredients to make a closed half-circle. If the dough has become too warm and sticky to fold, place the open calzone in your refrigerator to cool for 10-15 minutes and try again. Use fork prongs to press the calzone closed around the edges and brush the leftover egg from Step 1 onto the calzone.
    5.
    Bake for 10 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Bake longer for a darker, crispier crust. Slice the finished calzone in half to make 2 servings (each serving being a calzone).
