Ham and Cheese Hot Pockets

Print Recipe

Delicious ham and cheese hot pockets filled with savory goodness, perfect for a cozy meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 cup diced ham
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the chilled, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
  2. Chill the dough: Wrap your dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Prepare the filling: While the dough is chilling, in a bowl, mix the diced ham and shredded cheese.
  4. Roll out the dough: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a floured surface, roll out your chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thick and cut it into squares.
  5. Assemble the hot pockets: Place a spoonful of the ham and cheese mixture in the center of each square, fold the dough over to create a triangle, and press the edges with a fork to seal.
  6. Brush the tops with egg wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the tops of the pockets.
  7. Bake: Arrange the hot pockets on a baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Cool and serve: Let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

These hot pockets are perfect for dipping in soup or served with a fresh salad.
