TOTAL TIME
1
In a bowl, combine warm water, yeast, honey, olive oil, and salt. Stir well and let rest for 5 minutes, until the mixture becomes foamy.
2
Add 3 cups of all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
3
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 minutes, until it is soft and elastic.
4
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until it has doubled in size.
FILLING
5
In a separate bowl, combine mashed potatoes, chopped onions, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, black pepper, and salt.
ASSEMBLY
6
Once the dough has doubled in size, preheat the oven to 440°F (220°C).
7
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 12 equal portions.
8
Roll each portion into a 6-inch circle (approximately) and place 2 to 3 tablespoons of the potato filling on one half of the dough.
9
Lightly brush the edges with water and fold the other half of the dough over the filling, pressing the edges gently to seal the pocket.
10
Place the filled pockets onto a parchment-lined baking tray and let them rest, covered with a kitchen towel, for 30 minutes.
BAKING
11
Place the baking tray on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake the pocket breads for 8 to 10 minutes, until puffed up and golden.
12
Let the breads cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then wrap them in a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft before serving.
