Pizza Pockets

(For those with the Fullmer Family Cookbook, this is mom's breadstick, pizza dough recipe)

Dough:

1 TBSP yeast

1 1/2 cup warm water

1 tsp sugar

let is rise for a few minutes

Add:

3 cups flour

1 tsp salt

2 TBSP sugar

Mix and knead for about 3 minutes. You don't want it stiff but you might need to add a little more flour so that you can handle it. Let rest for 10-15 minutes. Divide into 10 balls. Roll out each ball to a rectangle (these will be very thin).

Spread only about 1 tsp of your favorite pizza sauce (homemade or canned) but be sure to not get it too close to the edges. If it is too close it just makes it messy to pinch together but it won't really hurt anything.

Add toppings:

any combination of what you like on your pizza

Pepperonni

Canadian Bacon

Italian Sausage

Pineapple

Olives

Mushrooms

Top with Grated Cheese

(we like a mixture of Colby Jack and Mozarella)

Fold over top and seal edges. Place on a buttered baking sheet, brush with egg mixture (1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tsp water), let rise 10-15 minutes. Bake 350 for 25-30 minutes until golden brown on top.

Notes:

* You don't have to have these perfectly shaped, by the time they rise a little and bake they look great.

* The 2nd time that I made these I just mixed all of my toppings together rather than applying 1 topping at a time. It saved a little time in the end and because it is folded over no-one sees how carefully (or not) you applied the toppings.
