A delightful twist on classic calzones, these pockets are filled with a creamy spinach and bacon mixture, perfect for a quick dinner or snack.
Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated to achieve an even bake.
Microwave the spinach in a bowl until thawed, then squeeze out excess moisture.
Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much water as possible from the spinach.
Combine the spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, bacon, garlic, and salt in a bowl.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Divide the dough into four equal portions and roll each into a 6-inch circle.
Use a lightly floured surface to prevent sticking.
Place a portion of filling in the center of each dough circle.
Avoid overfilling to prevent the pockets from bursting during baking.
Moisten the edges of the dough with water, fold over, and seal by pressing with a fork.
Cut small slits on top to allow steam to escape.
Bake the pockets on the prepared baking sheet for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even browning.
Let the pockets cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
