Traveling from US (and back) on H1-B visa with new I-797 approval notice (not stamped on passport)

Yes, Legally you can leave the US and re-enter on unexpired visa with old employer. CBP may ask you to show more documents.
Generally below documents help answer questions for immigration@CBP:
- Old & new i-797
- Employment letter from the new employer
- Latest pay stubs from new employer
- Bank statements for salary deposits from the new employer
NOTE: Though, its legally allowed to leave and re-enter on VISA that was on old employer, attorneys suggest to travel with Visa on new employer, based on my experience few years back.

If the visa is not expired and you are still authorized to work, you can leave and re-enter the US with your existing visa to return to work.
If the visa expires, you may remain in the US as long as you are in status, but if you leave the US you must return to your home country to obtain a new visa before returning to the US (except for short trips to Canada and Mexico under automatic revalidation).
