How to make Gluten Free Empanada Dough:
1 Our first step to make the homemade empanada dough recipe is to pre-list the ingredients. Keep in mind that it is very important that you check that the products are gluten-free. This dough is enough for about 18 or 20 medium empanadas.
2 In a bowl add the previously sifted flours. The sieving process involves passing the flours through a sieve to obtain a fine dough.
3 Bring the water and butter to a deep pot. Heat over medium heat until it boils and the butter is completely melted. Remove from heat.
4 Mix the butter with the flour and stir the ingredients well until they are completely integrated.
5 With your hand, knead the gluten-free empanada mixture. Knead until you get a uniform and homogeneous dough.
6 Cover with a kitchen towel and let the dough rest for approximately 20 minutes.
7 After this time, flour the work table with quinoa flour or whole meal flour. This way we can more easily work the dough to make the empanadas.
8 Bring our homemade dough to the table and roll out with a rolling pin.
9 The ideal is that the gluten-free dough is very thin to be able to make the tapas for empanadas.
10 With the help of a round well or cutter (the size you want the empanadas) cut rounds and reserve them on a plate with a kitchen cloth on top so that the dough does not dry out.
Use this dough to make the empanadas you want. Gluten-free empanada dough will help you make pine empanadas, Bolognese empanadas, or pumpkin empanadas.
