Making Hot Pockets

These Homemade Pockets are a great “Baking Day” project. Take the time to make these on an afternoon or morning while you will be home. These take a couple of hours from start to finish to make, but they can be frozen and will a quick easy meal to have on hand

Make sure you use at least a 6qt bowl as it will make a huge batch of dough. I use my big Kitchen Aid mixer with the bowl lift. When making these I roughly get about 30-35 good size hot pockets out it.
Dough Ingredients:
9 cups flour
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
4 1/2 tsp. yeast
1 1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cup water
1 tsp. salt
2 sticks melted butter

Put 9 cups flour in a large bowl, make a well in the center.

In a separate bowl beat 4 eggs, than add 1/2 cup sugar and 4 1/2 tsp. yeast.

In another bowl, scald 1 1/2 cups milk in microwave for 3 minutes. Then
add 1 1/2 cups water. Add this mixture to the egg mixture. Stir in 1
tsp. salt. Mix all ingredients well

Pour this mixture into the well of flour in the large bowl. Do not stir. Put lid on and let sit for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes, add 2 sticks of melted butter and mix well.

Cover and let sit for 1 hour. Now that your dough is made you are ready to make hot pockets.

You can fill them with anything you like. I have done the following
Breakfast(egg, sausage, peppers, onions, salsa cheese
Lunch/Dinner ones- Meat lovers, chicken alfredo, supreme
