Ingredients for Pizza Dough
2 tsp active dry yeast (optional)
1 cup warm water
1 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp salt (garlic salt is preferred).
1 egg to brush on before popping in oven.
2 to 3 cups flour
Ingredients for Filling:
Pizza / Spaghetti Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese or cottage cheese
Bacon / Ham / Ground Beef
or whatever you like! As much as you like.
PIZZA DOUGH DIRECTIONS:
Mix together your sugar, oil, salt and 1 cup of flour.
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic.
Filling:
Mix all your ingredients together. If you are using vegetables like peppers or onions, you should fry them or cook them first. All meats should also be cooked before mixing with other foods.
Finishing Hot Pocket/Pizza Pop/Calzone:
Roll the dough thinly on a floured surface. Make it as thin as possible. Cut as desired. You can make circles, half circles or squares. In this video, I made half circles by cutting a large round dough in half, spreading filling in the middle of one piece, placing the other piece of dough on top, and cutting pieces out with a glass. Pinch edges to seal securely. Place the pizza sandwiches on greased / floured cookie sheet. Pre-heat oven to about 300 degrees, depending on how hot your oven gets. The oven in the video is quite small, so 300 degrees seems hotter. If you have a larger oven, try 375 degrees. Brush the pizza pops / calzones with egg. You can cover with foil if desired (I don’t like them getting too golden). Leaving uncovered is also fine. Pop in the oven. Bake until golden brown, approx 25-35 minutes. Check them often.
*Reasons to make your own:
– Cheaper than buying them packaged at a store!
– You can make whatever quantity you like!
– Great snack or lunch meal!
– If you chose your ingredients carefully, you can chose things with less or no preservatives/chemicals (use organic ingredients, whole wheat flour, etc.).
– Kids will have fun making these! Great weekend family activity!
Live healthier and cheaper!

Very helpful. Simple, quick, and easy to understand recipe. I was actually
eating a store-bought pizzapop while watching this, but nothing beats
homemade. Thanks for upload! I’ll try this!
If I don’t have marinara sauce, can I just use any?
seasoning, garlic powder, garlic salt, oregano, parmesan cheese, all mixed
in with olive oil. paint on this seasoning before or after cooking and it
taste just like a bread stick seasoning form a pizza place!
That’s what we Mexicans call an Empanada
Way too many than just 8 XD great job!
yummy
Ignore the haters, this is a great video and thank you for a recipe w/o
yeast!!!
Excellent video upload and a great idea for a snack or meal, I did notice
that the cheese came out of the pocket into the pan when you showed the end
product, to avoid this I found that if you brush the edges of the pocket
with egg before sealing it your pocket will remain closed while it’s
baking. Sorry if I come off cocky, I don’t mean too. I just wanted to share
a tip I learned while making home made beef patties.
