Ingredients
  

Dough ingredients

  • 1 cup Low-fat Greek Yogurt (or blended low-fat cottage cheese)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (or a mix of almond flour and coconut flour for a low-carb option)
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt

Filling ingredients

  • 15 g Pizza Sauce
  • 20 g Low-fat Cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the all-purpose flour, mixing until well-integrated to form a dough.
  • Add baking powder, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt to the dough, stirring until fully combined.
  • Sprinkle some flour on a clean surface and knead the dough for about a minute until it's smooth and elastic.
  • Divide the dough into equal pieces and roll each piece into a circle about ¼ inch thick.

Assembly

  • Take half of each circle and spread a spoonful of pizza sauce on it.
  • Sprinkle the low-fat cheese on top and add other preferred toppings.
  • Fold the dough over to create a pocket and use a fork to seal the edges.
  • Arrange the prepared hot pockets on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Cooking

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve hot, with marinara or extra pizza sauce for dipping. These pockets are also easy to store; keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or freeze for later.
