Homemade Pizza Pockets Recipe
Our homemade pizza pockets are a family favorite recipe that requires only four simple ingredients and takes 25 minutes to prepare.
Serving6 servings
Ingredients
- 18 dinner rolls, frozen dough
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 3 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 54 pepperoni slices
Instructions
- Thaw rolls according to directions on the package.
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- After the rolls are thawed (but not risen), stretch out each roll and lay it flat on a greased cookie sheet.
- Spoon a small amount of pizza sauce onto each roll. Top with a small handful of shredded cheese, and three pepperoni slices.
- Fold the dough over the toppings and pinch the edges together. Try to not have any holes in your dough, as your cheese will melt out of it.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven or Air Fryer.
- We generally keep it simple for the kids with pepperoni, but there are so many other ideas you can do! Here are a few suggestions: green peppers, olives, ham (or Canadian bacon), pineapple, bacon bits, banana peppers, barbecue sauce instead of pizza sauce, grilled chicken pieces, or red onions.
