Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-¼ cups mozzarella cheese (grated (For GAPS, use an aged cheese, like Gruyere, or aged cheddar.))
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
  • 4 teaspoons coconut flour ( or ¼ cup blanched almond flour)
  • 1 Tablespoon butter ( melted, or avocado/olive oil)
  • 2 teaspoons psyllium husk powder ((Omit for GAPS.))
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda (sifted (Omit for GAPS.))
  • 2 big slices cheese ( or 1/2 cup divided (Aged for GAPS.))
  • 2 slices ham ( or turkey (For GAPS, use leftover non-deli meat.))
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (optional (Omit for GAPS.))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat chaffle or waffle iron.
  • In a small mixing bowl, stir together all of the chaffle ingredients: eggs, mozzarella, parmesan, coconut or almond flour, butter or oil, psyllium husk powder and baking soda. The batter will be very thick, with lots of cheese and a little hard to stir.
  • Scoop batter onto preheated chaffle or waffle iron. If using a waffle iron, shape the batter into a thick square, so the finished Hot Pocket will be rectangular. Use about ⅙ of the batter for (small) chaffle iron or ½ of the batter for full size waffle iron. (I prefer to cook this recipe on a full size iron, so there are fewer Hot Pockets to make, just 2 total = less work.) Cook for less than the usual time it takes to make a chaffle or waffle — only about 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the partially cooked chaffle to a baking sheet. Optionally, spread one side of the chaffle with Dijon mustard. Add ham or turkey and cheese slice. (Don't over-fill the chaffle, or it will be harder to seal.)
  • Fold over the chaffle. Crimp or seal the edges by pressing them together with the edge of a spoon or tines of a fork. (The dough crimps together easily. But it won't seal like raw pastry dough, yet it will hold in place well and seal in spots. Don't worry if it seems to break a little in a few spots.)
  • Move the baking sheet to the preheated oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. (Continue with any remaining batter, depending on how many Hot Pockets you're making. It's okay to add unbaked Hot Pockets to the baking sheet with others that are already baking. It's also okay for one Hot Pocket to bake a little longer than another one. Just remove before it gets too dark. Use an offset metal spatula to transfer Hot Pockets into and out of the oven.)
