Step 1
Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Spread the crescent rolls out and gently cut along the perforated lines, creating a total of 8 rectangles of dough, each of which is made up of 2 connected triangles. Be careful not to disconnect them.
Step 2
Add 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce to the middle of 4 dough rectangles, leaving a 1/2-inch perimeter. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of cheese and add optional toppings as desired.
Step 3
Over each of the four dough rectangles with sauce and toppings, place one of the untouched rectangles of dough. Using your fingers or a fork, form a calzone by sealing the two layers of dough together with the filling in the middle.
Step 4
Install a crisper plate in both baskets. Gently transfer the calzones to both baskets, fitting two per basket. Insert baskets in unit.

Step 6
When cooking is complete, allow calzones to cool in baskets for 3 minutes. Transfer calzones to a plate and serve with remaining warmed pizza sauce for dipping.
