Homemade empanadas dough

Remember that the dough can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator in a plastic bag. In this way, it can be stretched at the time of use, to prepare empanadas, baskets, cakes or even to prepare cheese quesadillas, among other dishes.

Another tip, once the empanada covers are finished, they can be stored between the dividers and stored in the freezer.
Keep in mind that this dough can be used for baked or fried empanadas.
This original recipe for making homemade empanada dough is made with pork fat, however if we want them lighter or lighter we can replace it with butter.
