Ingredients

Mozzarella Mushroom Empanadas

  • 1 pound pizza dough

  • 1 and 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • egg, for brushing

Directions

Prepare the Filling

1.

In a small skillet, heat oil. Sauté mushrooms over low flame until softened, approximately 10 minutes. Stir in spices.

Assembly

1.

Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.

2.

Roll out dough. Cut out 14 four-inch circles.

3.

Sprinkle one and a half tablespoons cheese in the center of each circle, then cover with mushroom mixture. Fold dough round in half and seal well with your fingers. Press edges together with a fork and place on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining circles. Brush empanadas with egg.

4.

Bake for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes:

To help seal the edges well, smear some oil on the rim of the dough rounds before folding.
