2019 Week 4 Breakfast pockets

Ingredients

Dough Ingredients:

8 oz mozzarella cheese shredded or cubed

2 oz cream cheese

2/3 cup almond flour

1/3 cup coconut flour

1 egg

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

Filling Ingredients:

2 eggs scrambled

4 oz uncured bacon or other cooked breakfast meat (i.e. chicken or turkey sausage)

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese or other cheese or your choice

Preparation Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Put mozzarella cheese and the cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave one minute. Stir. Microwave 30 seconds. Stir. At this point, all the cheese should be melted. Microwave 30 more seconds (it should look like cheese fondue at this point). 
  3. Put the melted cheese and the other dough ingredients into a food processor and pulse until a uniform dough forms. (Alternatively, you can mix by hand but make sure to knead the dough thoroughly).
  4. Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Press each into a 6-inch circle on a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. It helps to wet your hands. Divide the filling between each circle of dough. Fold in the edges and crimp to seal. Place back on the parchment seam side down. 
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
