Ingredients
- 1 pkg (13.8 oz./391 g) refrigerated pizza dough
- Flour for dusting
- Oil for greasing
- 1½ oz. (45 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded (6 tbsp/90 mL)
- 1 Optional: 1 oz. (30g) sliced pepperoni, about 12 slices
- 1 egg, beaten
- Optional: Everything but the Pizza Seasoning
- Pizza sauce or marinara for dipping
Directions
- Unroll the pizza dough onto a cutting board. Cut 6 dough rounds with the Hand Pie & Pocket Maker cutter (the thin edge of the mold below the lip).
- Set the Deluxe Air Fryer & Oven to Conv. Bake for 9 minutes and grease the Sheet Pan with Oil.
- Dust the base of the pocket maker with flour. Place one piece of dough on the foldable base and add the cheese using the scoop provided. Add 2 slices of pepperoni (if using).
- Brush the beaten egg on the edges of the dough. Using the handle, fold the dough, and firmly press to crimp and seal.
- Place the pizza pockets on an Air Fryer Rack, and brush the tops with the beaten egg. Repeat with the remaining dough, cheese, and pepperoni.
- Sprinkle the pizza pockets with Everything but the Pizza Seasoning, if you’d like. When the display says “ADD FOOD,” place them in the oven (on the wire rack). Press start. Rotate the pan halfway through cooking.
- Remove the pizza pockets from the oven when READY and serve with pizza sauce or marinara.
