Baked Apple Empanadas
Baked Apple Empanadas are the ultimate fall treat and a fantastic way to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month! These empanadas are a big hit in Mexico, bringing together the classic elements found in Mexican-style empanadas: a flaky pastry, baked to perfection (no frying needed!), a sweet fruit filling, and a sugary coating that adds a delightful crunch to every bite. For the dough, I went with King Arthur's AP flour—100% American-grown, unbleached, never bromated, and unenriched. And for the filling, I spiced up tart Granny Smith apples with a mix of cinnamon and cloves before tucking them into the dough. Making Apple Empanadas is really easy, and it's a super fun activity for the whole family (kids included!). These little pockets of deliciousness are portable, irresistible, and perfect for sharing!
