Perfect Pocket Dough

Perfect Pocket Dough

That’s right: I’m calling it perfect because it is. I’m even giving it a special large photo all its own.

Total time: 20 minutes.

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup plain yogurt
2 Tbsp oil
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder

Makes about 10 sandwich pockets.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients.

Make a well in the middle. Add oil and yogurt into the middle, mix well, and incorporate into the flour mix until most of the flour has turned into pea sized or larger clumps.

Using your hands, combine the clumps together to form a soft ball of dough. Let rest 15 minutes before using.

Seen here with ham, cheese, and mashed potatoes. I scooped the filling out to show the dough a little better, but some potatoes stayed behind; they wanted to be eaten that badly.

This is a much better dough for Cheesesteak Sandwich Pockets.
