Instructions
 

Prep pastry dough

  • Whisk together dry ingredients for pastry dough.
  • Cut in butter with a pastry cutter, 2 knives, blender, or with your hands.
  • Add sourdough starter and stir until a ball of dough forms. Knead 5-10 times to bring it together.
  • Cover with a tea towel or plastic wrap and set it aside for 1 hour or several days in the fridge.

Making the hot pockets

  • mix all filling ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Lightly flour work surface and roll out half of the pastry dough. Roll it to about 1/8 inch thick. You need a large rectangle about 8" x 12".
  • Cut the dough into 4 long, skinny rectangles and trim the edges to make them straight.
  • Add a healthy helping of the filling into each rectangle, placing the filling closer to one end and leaving the other end of the pastry empty.
  • Brush the edges with egg wash, fold the empty side of the dough over the top of the filling. Crimp the edges together with a fork to seal it shut.
  • Brush the tops of each hot pocket with egg wash, arrange on baking sheet, and bake at 250℉ for about 25 minutes.
