Savory Cabbage Beef Pockets

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Cabbage Beef Pockets.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give your muffin cups a light spray with cooking spray to ensure easy removal later.

2. Step 2

   In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add your ground beef and cook it, stirring frequently, until it’s beautifully browned and crumbly—this should take about 5 to 7 minutes.

3. Step 3

   Once it’s cooked, drain any excess grease to keep your filling nice and lean.

4. Step 4

   Next, toss in the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, which should take around 5 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to add the shredded cabbage.

6. Step 6

   Lower the heat to low and let it cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage wilts slightly—this will take about another 5 minutes.

7. Step 7

   After that, pour the beef and cabbage mixture into a colander to strain out any extra liquid, and let it cool for a bit.

8. Step 8

   While that cools, lightly spray your work surface and flatten each thawed dinner roll into a disc using a rolling pin.

9. Step 9

   Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of the savory beef and cabbage filling right in the center of each disc.

10. Step 10

    Gently fold the discs in half around the filling, pressing the edges together firmly to seal them.

11. Step 11

    Place these delightful pockets into your prepared muffin cups.

12. Step 12

    Give the tops a quick spray with cooking spray and poke a toothpick into each one to let steam escape while they bake.

13. Step 13

    Now, pop them into your preheated oven and let them bake until the dough turns a lovely golden brown, which should take about 25 to 45 minutes.

14. Step 14

    Enjoy the delicious aroma filling your kitchen as you await these tasty treats!.
