Keto Morning Hot Pockets

For my review, I chose Morning Hot Pockets from the Breakfast in Five eBook. They are filled with scrambled eggs and crispy bacon but you can use anything you like - even sweet fillings would work. I made them a week ago while my mom was visiting, and she couldn't believe they were low-carb. They tasted just like the breakfast pockets she buys at a local bakery back in Prague.

Ingredients (makes 2 servings):

¾ cup shredded mozzarella (85 g/ 3 oz) - use low-moisture, part-skim, shredded mozzarella cheese; not fresh mozzarella.
⅓ cup almond flour (33 g/ 1.2 oz)
2 large eggs, scrambled
2 tbsp unsalted butter or ghee (28 g/ 1 oz)
3 slices bacon, cooked (48 g/ 1.7 oz)

Instructions:

Cook the bacon and eggs. Prepare the dough: melt the shredded mozzarella (in a microwave oven or on the stove over a low heat) & add the almond flour. Stir until the dough is well-combined.
To crisp up bacon: Place the bacon strips in a large pan and add a few tablespoons of water. Cook over medium-high heat until the water starts to boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the water evaporates and the bacon fat is rendered. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the bacon is lightly browned and crispy.
To scramble eggs: Grease the skillet where you cooked the bacon with half of the butter or ghee and add both eggs. Cook over a medium-low heat until opaque, stirring constantly. Take off the heat and then add the remaining butter.
Roll the dough out between 2 sheets of parchment paper (I used a silicon mat and silicon rolling pin).
Place the bacon slices and scrambled eggs along the center (I cut my bacon into pieces).
Fold over and seal the dough. Make some holes for releasing the steam while baking.
Bake at 400 F (200 C) for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch (I baked mine for just 15 minutes).
