15 ml (1 tbsp) olive oil

Salt

Assembly :

The dough

The farce

125 ml (1/2 cup) vegan cheese

Vegan butter

Salsa

Preheat oven to 190 ° C (375 ° F).

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Between two sheets of parchment paper, roll out balls of dough the size of a golf ball.

Use a 10 cm (4 inch) diameter glass as a cookie cutter to form discs.

Fill each disc with 1 tablespoon of stuffing. Add cheese if desired and gently fold the dough in half. Shape the edges to seal well.

Transfer to baking sheets. Be careful, the dough is very fragile.

Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Halfway through baking, brush with a little melted vegan butter to achieve a golden brown. These empanadas can be eaten warm or at room temperature, and are even better dipped in salsa. Have fun making them into all sorts of shapes with your kids.

Note: This recipe freezes very well.
