  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup pepperoni slices
  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface until it’s about ¼ inch thick. Cut the dough into rectangles that measure approximately 4 inches by 6 inches.
  3. Spread a spoonful of pizza sauce on one half of each rectangle. Then, add the mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, and sprinkle some Italian seasoning on top.
  4. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling. Press down firmly to seal the edges and crimp them with a fork.
  5. Place the pockets on the prepared baking sheet and brush them lightly with olive oil.
  6. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown. Serve them hot for the best taste!

Notes

Make sure to roll the pizza dough evenly for even cooking. Customize the filling with your favorite ingredients. Use a sealing technique that works best for you.
