Ingredients

• 1 Batch Grain Free Everything Dough
• Tapioca flour for dusting and rolling
• 1 egg white (from 1 large egg)
• favorite filling (see Mexican Picadillo Recipe below)
• 1 Tablespoon avocado oil (light vegetable oil)
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 medium russet potatoes, cubed into ¾ inch pieces
• 2 large carrots, finely diced
• 1 large tomato, diced
• 2 Tablespoons gluten free Tamari
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano
• ½ teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Divide dough into 6 balls. Place back in mixing bowl and cover dough with a towel so it does not dry out. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a clean counter and dust generously with tapioca flour, this will be your rolling surface.
• Remove one ball of dough and form into a disk. Dust with tapioca flour and place on parchment paper. Roll into a 6 inch circle.
• Pour a small amount of filling over half of the dough, see photo above. I used a little over ¼ cup of filling. Do not overstuff or the dough will tear.
• Fold dough in half and fold over the edges. Press down with fingers to seal edges.
• Using a large spatula, carefully place your finished grain free everything empanada on the parchment lined baking sheet. Brush with egg white all over.
• Repeat with remaining dough. Arrange finished empanadas on baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until slightly golden.
• Allow to cool for 15 minutes before eating. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge. Reheat chilled empanadas at 400 degrees for 10 minutes before serving.
• In a large skillet, heat oil and add onion. Saute 2 minutes and add ground beef. Brown for 5 minutes.
• Add remaining ingredients, stir and cover 10-12 minutes or until potatoes are cooked through. Taste for seasoning.
