Pillsbury🌴 Inspired by panaderias and Gabriella’s @thatssogabba Costa Rican heritage, these Guava and Cheese Empanadas are the perfect sweet and salty pastry made with Pillsbury biscuits. 🧺 Ingredients: 4 oz guava paste 4 oz queso fresco 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Grands!™ Flaky Layers Original Biscuits (8 Count) 1 large egg, beaten 2 tsp sugar 🍴 Recipe: 1. Heat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Slice 8 equal-sized pieces of guava and cheese about 2 ½ inches wide and about a ⅓ inch thick. Make 8 stacks of one piece of guava paste and one piece of queso fresco. 3. On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out each biscuit to 4 inches wide to create an empanada disk. Place one stack of the guava and queso in the lower half in each empanada disk. 4. To create the empanada: fold the dough over to create a half moon shape and press to seal with your finger. Crimp the edges with a fork. Repeat the process with all 8 empanada disks. 5. Transfer to lined baking sheet. Brush each empanada with beaten egg and sprinkle the tops with ¼ tsp sugar. 6. Bake for 16 minutes until golden brown. Let cool.
