Mini calzones for freezer. Parbake?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I want to make a couple of batches of finger snacks that I can pull from the freezer and pop in the oven.

I'll make the dough and sauce, and use whatever cheese and toppings, I'll do some kind of bite-sized calzone thing.

Should I let the dough rise once, roll everything out , stuff, and freeze? Will lightly dusting with flour be enough and they can all go in the same container? How could I store?

Or should I go ahead and let it rise two times, roll everything out, stuff, parbake and then freeze?

If I par-bake how long do I do that for? Why am I even par-baking? I'm not sure what that's even for.

I would let the dough rise once, roll, stuff, par bake, let cool on wire rack until it reaches room temp. Then place them on a baking sheet to freeze.

Once frozen, Place them into freezer bags

The reason for par baking, is that you get a nice crispy texture to your calzone.

You can do it any way you mentioned, whatever is better for you. Freeze in airtight plastic zip lock bags, date and label
