Alabama Hot Pockets are a delightful twist on the classic Hot Pocket. They ditch the store-bought pastry for a flakey crescent dough crust and combine the goodness of a savory sausage filling with the creamy comfort of cheddar cheese. This recipe adds a touch of Alabama flair with the inclusion of bell peppers, onions, and a sprinkle of paprika and cayenne pepper for a hint of heat. They're perfect for a quick and satisfying lunch, after-school snack, or even a fun party appetizer.
In just about an hour, you can whip up a batch of these delicious pockets. They're easy to customize to your taste preference with different cheeses, vegetables, or even proteins.
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease.
- Add the diced bell peppers and chopped onion to the skillet with the cooked sausage. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
- Stir in the paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to the sausage and vegetable mixture. Cook for an additional minute, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate the triangles. Spoon a generous portion of the sausage mixture onto the wider end of each triangle.
- Fold the dough over the filling, forming a crescent shape. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
- Brush the tops of each Hot Pocket with the beaten egg.
- Place the Hot Pockets on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let the Hot Pockets cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
