About Baked empanada
Baked Empanadas are a savory pastry originating from Latin America, beloved for their versatility and rich flavors. Typically made with a dough of flour, water, and fat, these golden pockets are filled with an array of ingredients such as seasoned meats, vegetables, cheeses, and sometimes fruits. Baking, rather than frying, makes them a lighter option compared to traditional fried empanadas. They often provide a good source of protein and fiber depending on their fillings, which might include lean beef, chicken, or legumes paired with nutrient-rich vegetables. However, the pastry itself can be high in refined carbs and fats, depending on the recipe. By opting for whole-grain dough and lean, plant-forward fillings, empanadas can be a healthier choice without sacrificing flavor. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or meal, baked empanadas offer a delightful blend of texture and taste while showcasing the essence of Latin culinary tradition.
