1/2 teaspoon of salt

Step 10

1 stick of butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

Step 11

1 egg

Step 12

1/4 cup ice cold water

Step 13

1 beaten egg for brushing the empanadas

Step 14

Directions:

Step 15

Mix the flour and salt in the processor.

Step 16

Add butter, egg and cold water to the flour mixture. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 17

Shape the dough into a ball and wrap dough with plastic. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Step 18

Roll the dough on a lightly floured work surface into a thin sheet and cut out discs using a large biscuit cutter.

Step 19

Brush the edges of the empanada discs with the beaten egg to help better seal them.

Step 20

Fold the empanada discs and seal the edges with a fork or your fingers. Brush the top of the empanadas with the rest of the beaten egg. Chill the empanadas for about 20 minutes.

Step 21

Pre-heat the oven to 400 F and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
