By McCarleyRHLAC

Ingredients

• Kosher salt
• 1 1/2 cups chopped broccoli florets
• 1 3/4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 5 ounces)
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• Vegetable oil, for brushing
• All-purpose flour, for dusting
• 1 11-ounce tube refrigerated French bread dough
• 1 large egg

Preparation

Step 1

Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook 1 minute. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool; pat dry. Mix the broccoli, cheddar, sour cream and chives in a bowl until combined, then squeeze the mixture together with your hands to make it compact.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and brush a baking sheet lightly with vegetable oil. On a floured surface, roll out the dough and fill the dinner pockets. Step-by-step directions.

Place the pockets seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Beat the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl; brush the pockets with the egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes
