Gathering Ingredients

Before diving into the recipe, let’s make sure we have all the necessary ingredients to make Crescione:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup fresh arugula
  • 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped black olives
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Making the Dough

First, we need to prepare the dough:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add warm water gradually while stirring the mixture until it forms a soft dough.
  3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise for approximately 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Assembling and Cooking

Once the dough has risen, it’s time to assemble the Crescione:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then divide it into two equal portions.
  3. Roll out one portion of the dough into a circular shape (about 8 inches in diameter).
  4. Spread half of the mozzarella cheese, arugula, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and black olives on one half of the dough.
  5. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling, creating a half-moon shape. Seal the edges tightly by pressing with a fork.
  6. Repeat the same process with the second portion of the dough and remaining filling.
  7. Place both Crescione on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush the tops with olive oil.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
