    About Recipe

    Bread pockets are easy to make appetizer or snack that you can prepare with fresh bread slices. Use the leftover pizza topping to make bread stuffing. Make a pocket of bread with stuffing and shallow fry to get golden brown color. It's a nice and crispy golden brown handheld snack that will give you the best flavor and aroma.

    As it's a quick and easy recipe so you can quickly make it to serve at parties, breakfast, teatime, and lunchbox. My son loves to eat these pockets as he thinks it's a fried pizza :-). If you are a mommy of picky kids then try this and I am sure your kids will love it.

    Bread pockets can be prepared in a variety of ways like using pizza dough, puff pastries, and here I am making using bread slices that are super easy and quick to make.

    On a personal note, first time, I prepared this recipe for a Sunday breakfast table with leftover pizza toppings and served it with a homemade cappuccino. Everybody loved it! and since it's in my quick recipe collection.

    • Don't use too much stuffing otherwise the pockets may break.
    • Make sure the stuffing is not watery otherwise the bread will get soggy after frying.

    You can make it ahead of time and store the bread pockets in the refrigerator before frying for 2 days. When you need it, take out and microwave for 2 minutes and shallow fry. If you want to store it for 15 days then freeze it in an airtight container. I personally don't like to store for a long time as it's homemade and doesn't carry any preservatives.
