Runza is a tasty, handheld pastry stuffed with a scrumptious mix of ground beef, onions, garlic, cabbage, and spices, all snug inside soft pizza dough.
Roll out the pizza dough and cut it into 6 equal pieces, cover and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium high heat cook the ground beef until it is nearly completely browned. Drain and discard the grease.
To the skillet, add the onion, garlic, cabbage, salt and pepper and old bay seasoning, and continue to cook with the beef until the cabbage is tender—about 10 more minutes.
Remove the beef mixture from heat and allow it to cool.
While the beef filling is cooling, preheat your oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit.
Roll the pieces of dough out into rectangles and fill each one with a portion of meat filling. Fold in the ends and roll the dough over the filling to create a cylinder of meat filled dough.
Pinch the dough seams together and place the runzas on a parchment lined baking sheet, seam side down.
Mix the egg white and water together to make an egg wash.
Brush the top of each runza with the egg wash and bake them for 18-20 minutes. They should all be a golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before enjoying!
