About Egg empanada
An Egg Empanada is a delicious pastry traditionally found in Latin American cuisine. This handheld treat features a savory filling made of eggs, often combined with cheese, vegetables, or herbs, encased in a golden-brown, flaky dough. Popular variations might include onions, peppers, or spinach for added flavor and nutrients. While the eggs provide protein and essential vitamins like B12, the empanada shell, typically made from white flour and fried or baked, can be high in refined carbohydrates and fats, depending on its preparation. Baked versions are a healthier alternative, reducing the overall fat content. Egg Empanadas make for a satisfying snack or breakfast item but are best enjoyed in moderation, paired with fresh sides like a salad or fruit to balance their richness and enhance their nutritional value.
