Gluten-free Pizza Hot Pockets Recipe using my favorite paleo pizza dough mix. Super versatile and this recipe is also vegan-friendly!
I was on the phone with my mom earlier and was telling her about these new hot pockets I was sharing on the blog today.
Her immediate response.. “OMG you used to love those!” And she is 100% right. I loved my hot pockets. I would always ask for the pizza ones to be in the freezer growing up. Filled with pepperoni and all the goods.
Except fast forward a decade and now we finally understand the ingredients in an actual hot pocket.
Of course this recipe doesn’t taste exactly like the ones you may have had growing up like I did, but they are still pretty kick a$$ if you ask me!
I love that these healthy hot pockets are easy to make, super versatile and they are paleo and can be easily made vegan.
I filled some with just cheese and sauce and others with some sausage in there too. I personally like adding in a little extra protein in them to keep me full longer but you can also use a vegan sausage or anything you wish.
I also sprinkle some extra cheese on top and broil them for a minute or so to get the cheese all melted and real good!. These can also easily be reheat in the oven or if you prefer microwave, that works.
What ingredients you need to make these homemade hot pockets:
- Pizza dough mix of your choosing – I love this one so much! I use it in so many recipes here like my homemade pizza bagels, garlic knots and these everything bagels.
- Organic sauce of choice – you could also put in some pesto too!
- Cheese or non-dairy cheese – I used a random vegan one I found at the store. It was pretty good but I’m going to use mozzarella next time
- Sausage, veggie sausage and/or roasted veggies!
