The England Under-21 international has scored 15 goals from 31 appearances in all competitions this season, including 13 strikes from 26 Premier League games.
Calvert-Lewin has netted 10 times in the league since 7 December, with all of his goals proving crucial to the match outcome.
His latest effort - his fifth goal in six league games - came in last Sunday's 1-1 draw against Manchester United.
Calvert-Lewin has more than three years remaining on his current deal, which expires in the summer of 2023.
He was signed by Everton – for just £1.5 million – when he was 19, in the summer of 2016.
