Directions (Empanada)

In a large skillet heat 1 tbsp olive oil. Add ground meat and onion, sauté until slightly browned (5-7 minutes). Add raisins and spices to ground beef mixture. Continue to cook until meat is cooked through. Stir in roasted peppers. Let mixture cool.

 

Roll out prepared Kinnikinnick Flakey Pie Dough and cut into 5” circles. Lightly brush pie dough circle with water. Place filling on ½ of circle leaving an outer edge.

In a small bowl whisk together the water, lemon juice and the egg.

 

Create a well in the middle of flour mixture and pour liquid in. Fold flour mixture in with hands, continue to work until all the flour is worked in and pie dough is able to be formed into a smooth log.

 

Divide dough into 5 portions and roll out into desired product. Follow baking directions of your favorite filling recipe. Yields 5 (8’’) pie shells


*Use parchment paper and a small amount of Kinnikinnick All Purpose Flour Blend or sweet rice flour to aid in rolling out pie dough.
