Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and pizza sauce make all the difference.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza pockets. Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and they may burst open while baking.
  • If you don't have pizza sauce, you can use tomato sauce or even ketchup.
  • You can add other toppings to your pizza pockets, such as cooked sausage, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • Be careful not to overbake the pizza pockets. They should be golden brown and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.
