Prepare pizza dough and let it rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.

Cut the dough into circles using a cutter or a glass.

Mix ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, prosciutto, spinach, and egg in a bowl until combined.

Place a spoonful of filling onto the center of each dough circle.

Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing with fingers or a fork.

Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Carefully add panzerotti to the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove panzerotti and drain on paper towels.

Serve hot with tomato sauce for dipping.
