Step 1

Whisk together the water and yeast in a small bowl. Let rest about 5 minutes to proof or until the mixture bubbles up.

Step 2

Mix in the oil, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Slowly begin stirring in the flour until a soft ball forms that isn’t too sticky.

Step 4

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover and let rest in a warm place for about 2 hours or until it doubles in size.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and cut into 8 equal pieces.

Step 7

Roll each piece out to a 6 x 4-inch rectangle.

Step 8

Mix the garlic and the melted butter in a small bowl. Spread a light layer on the top of each dough piece.

Step 9

Assembly: These fellers can be put together with any mixture of ingredients you’d like. I like to start with 1 to 2 tablespoons of sauce (marinara, ranch, etc.). Then add a generous layer of meat (hamburger, deli slices, pepperoni, etc.). Top with about 1/4 cup of shredded or sliced cheese.

Step 10

Roll each dough piece up and fold the edges under.

Step 11

Add a very thin layer of avocado or olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.

Step 12

Place the hot pockets, seam side down, in the skillet. Fry for about 3 to 4 minutes on all sides until lightly crispy and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and place on a wire rack, brush with butter/garlic mixture and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve warm.
