Reflux-Friendly Homemade Hot Pockets
Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
8 ounces ham, cubed
1 cup shredded cheddar
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 egg, beaten (optional, for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Unfold the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out just a bit to even the edges, then cut into 4–6 rectangles.
Spoon ham and cheddar onto half of each rectangle, leaving space around the edges.
Fold the pastry over the filling to make little pockets. Press edges with a fork to seal.
Brush with egg wash (or a little milk) and sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top.
Bake at 400°F for 15–18 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
