Arahan

Preheat oven

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Melt the cheese

Place 3 ½ cups of mozzarella cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 to 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted, then stir.

Mix in egg

Add one egg to the melted cheese and stir with a spoon or electric mixer.

Combine ingredients

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: almond flour and baking powder. Using an electric mixer, mix the dry ingredients into the egg and cheese mixture until well combined. If you don’t own an electric mixer, you can use your hands to work the dough, kneading it until it comes together.

Flatten the dough

Form dough into a ball and place between two pieces of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll out pizza dough to form a large rectangle. The dough should be about a ¼ inch thick.

Cut out rectangle sheets

Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough in half lengthwise and horizontally so you end up with four rectangles of dough.

Add ingredients into each rectangle

To two of the rectangles, paint 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce on each square of dough using the back of a spoon or pastry brush. Then top with a sprinkling of mozzarella cheese and 3-4 slices of pepperoni.

Make the pocket and seal

Top a plain rectangle of dough on top of the layer. Seal the edges with your fingers, then crimp with a fork to seal closed. Repeat on the rest.

Egg wash

Prick the top of each pizza pocket with a fork to allow steam to escape. Brush egg wash over each pizza pocket using a basting or pastry brush.

Bake the pizza pockets

Place each pocket onto a sheet of parchment paper and bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
