Instructions

  • Add flour, yeast, salt, garlic powder, onion powder and nutritional yeast to your food processor with the blade attachment and pulse to combine.
  • Pulse in olive oil in a steady stream.
  • Turn your food processor on low and slowly add water until thoroughly combined, continue mixing until the dough pulls away and a ball forms.
  • Remove dough and knead for a few minutes on a floured surface until dough is no longer sticky.
  • Pour a little olive oil in the bottom of a large bowl.
  • Place the dough in the bowl and turn over a couple times to coat with the oil.
  • Cover with saran wrap and let it rise until it doubles in size, about an hour or so.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Lightly flour the surface you will be using to make the hot pockets.
  • Pull apart handfuls of dough and roll out into circles about the size of your hand.
  • Add your desired fillings and fold in half.
  • Seal the edges by pressing with a fork or your fingers.
  • Brush with olive oil, top with salt and desired spices.
  • Place on a cookie sheet and bake for about 15 minutes or so until dough is cooked through and they are golden brown.

Notes

  • To freeze: Once cooled, wrap individually in saran wrap and place them in a gallon size ziploc bag. To thaw just removed the saran wrap and then wrap in a paper towel. Throw in the microwave for about 2 minutes until heated through.
  • Check the instructions on your active yeast. Some do not require proofing. But if it yours does, just add a little sugar to some water and then add the yeast and let sit for 5-10 mins until foamy.
