Pizza Pockets

Ingredients

  • 1 recipe whole-grain pizza dough or 1 pound (455g) frozen whole wheat bread dough, thawed

  • 3 Tbs cornmeal

  • 6 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded (about 1 1/2 cups)

  • 1 cup marinara sauce

  • Favorite pizza toppings for filling

Playing with dough is great fun for kids, especially when the result is pizza pockets. Older kids can make the dough themselves; for younger kids you’ll need to prepare the dough in advance and let them do the kneading. Make an extra batch and freeze for a quick meal anytime.

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Oil a baking sheet and then sprinkle with cornmeal.
  • Divide dough into six pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece of dough into a large circle. Spread about 3 Tbsp (45mL) of marinara sauce on one side of circle. Sprinkle 3 Tbsp (25g) of cheese and other toppings as desired on top of sauce.
  • Fold dough in half to form a half moon shape. Firmly pinch the edges together. Use a fork to poke a few holes in each pocket to let the steam escape. Place pizza pockets on prepared baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
