Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into an oval, approximately 6 inches long.
  5. Place 15g of pizza sauce and 20g of low-fat cheese on one half of each dough oval, leaving a ½-inch border.
  6. Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges with a fork, using water if needed.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Let the pockets cool for 5 minutes before serving.
