What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 8 empanada dough wrappers, 4.5" wide
  • 7 ounces package mango paste, sliced in ¼" pieces
  • 7 ounces package halloumi cheese, sliced ⅛" pieces
  • 8 dried chamomile flowers, ground
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
Directions
  1. Assemble empanadas by placing a piece of cheese and mango paste in the center of each wrapper. Sprinkle with a pinch of ground ginger and a ground chamomile flower.
  2. Close each empanada by folding over in half to form a half circle, then seal by pinching, stretching, and folding over along the open edge of the wrapper. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  3. Heat oven to 400°F. Rub a cookie sheet with butter and lay out empanadas on a single layer, about an inch apart.
  4. Whisk together egg and water in a small bowl. Lightly brush egg wash over empanadas and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a light golden color.
