Gluten Free & Keto Hot Pockets

A Non-Egg Breakfast Ideal!

OK so you can very well have these keto hot pockets anytime of day, but I find them particularly handy for non-egg breakfasts treats (and quick lunches!). Whip up a large batch, and simply bake straight from the freezer when the need arises.

And while I love a simple dijon mustard, ham and cheese filling (trust me!), you can really do your own thing here. Think cheesy chorizo, pizza fillings, ricotta salmon, cheeseburger… i.e. endless possibilities await!

Oh, and think just 5g net carbs a pocket.

These gluten free and keto hot pockets are an ideal easy breakfast treat (for when you need a little break from eggs!). Make ahead, freeze, and bake on command!

Ingredients

For the keto dough:

• 1 batch Crazy Keto Dough
• egg wash optional

Filling suggestions (see more in post)

• Dijon mustard to taste
• ham
• mozzarella cheese or cheese of choice

Instructions

For the keto dough:

• Whip up a batch of our Crazy Keto Dough. Allow dough to rest for 10 minutes while you prep the rest (and up to 5 days in the fridge).

• Hot Pockets
• Keto Chocolate Cake
• Mozzarella Sticks with Marinara Sauce
• Keto Cheesecake
• Chocolate Donuts

For the hot pockets:

• Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Line a baking tray with a baking mat or parchment paper.
• Break the dough into six 1 1/4” balls (30g a piece). Roll out between two sheets of parchment paper with a rolling pin or using a tortilla press. Use the dough ASAP, so it remains sticky and you can close the hot pockets easily (it dries out after 10-15 minutes at room temp and you would have to re-roll it). 
• Assemble hot pockets by spreading mustard on the dough, adding a layer of cheese, followed by ham and more cheese. Add a second piece of dough on top and press around to seal closed. Trim edges with a pastry cutter or knife (see post for pics), and re-use the scraps of course. You can freeze the pockets at this point for a month or two. 
• Place hot pockets in prepared tray, brush with egg wash (optional, for a golden sheen). Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden all over. 
• These guys are best served warm and straight from the oven, but they also do re-warm quite well. 

Notes

Please note that nutrition facts below are estimated for the dough only. Having said that, net carbs should still be close to 5g net per keto hot pocket if filling with things like ham and cheese.
