Dough: Keto Empanada Recipe

1 – Mix cream cheese and mozzarella in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the same for about a minute. Stir thoroughly.

2 – Add egg to the cheese mixture and mix well. Now, add the almond flour and mix again to form a dough.

3 – Prepare a flat dough with ¼-inch of thickness. Carve several circles out of it.

Cooking: Keto baked empanada recipe

1 – Grease a parchment paper and place the circles on the same.

2 – Equally distribute the beef mixture on one side of the circles. Use the remaining side to fold over. Press lightly on the loose ends to seal. Slightly roll the edges.



3 – Place the empanadas in the oven and bake for about 12 minutes or until they start turning golden brown.

4 – Remove the baked beef empanadas from the oven and set them aside. Serve hot or at normal room temperature.
Note:
● If the dough is too sticky, then:

Add a little more of the almond flour, or Put the dough in the refrigerator or freezer for about 15 minutes prior to using, or Rub your hands with some low-fat oil prior to using the dough.

Instead of parchment paper, you can also use a cooking sheet or a silicone baking mat. Roll all the remaining dough cut-offs to form more circles.
