Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your High Protein Pizza Hot Pockets:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the olive oil and Greek yogurt to the dry mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead gently for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.
5. Roll Out the Dough: Divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll each part into a circle, about ¼ inch thick.
6. Add Fillings: On one half of each dough circle, sprinkle mozzarella cheese, cooked pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, and Italian seasoning.
7. Fold the Dough: Fold the other half of the dough over the fillings, creating a pocket. Press the edges to seal and crimp with a fork for a decorative look.
8. Prepare for Baking: If desired, beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the pockets to give them a golden finish.
9. Bake: Place the pockets on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Cool and Serve: Let the hot pockets cool for a few minutes before serving with marinara sauce for dipping.
