For a vegetarian option, substitute the pepperoni with sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the pizza sauce for a spicy kick. Experiment with different cheeses, such as provolone, cheddar, or a blend of Italian cheeses. Make sure to seal the edges of the pockets very well to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking. If you find the dough is tearing, lightly dampen the edges with water before sealing. These pockets are best served warm, but they can also be reheated in the oven or microwave.

Oct 14, 2023My pockets burst in the oven. I think I didn't seal them well enough. Next time I'll be more careful.
