Ingredients for 4 empanadas:
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 2 tbsp psyllium husk

30 minutes | 10 minutes | 40 minutes |
How to prepare:
- Put the almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil, psyllium husk, and salt in a bowl.
- Add water and knead. The dough will firm up as the flour absorbs the water. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes, and then make 8 small dough balls.
- Meanwhile, put the tofu in a small pot and add 2 cups of water. Then add spices and soy sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes after boiling. Cut them into small crumbles. Then add tomato sauce to the tofu and let it cool down.
- Preheat the oven to 360°F/180°C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
- Roll the dough into 2mm (less than 1/8in) disks. Use plastic bags to stop them from sticking.
- After rolling the dough, put a tablespoon of filling in the center. Close and shape the empanada by folding it over the plastic. Place the shaped empanada on the baking sheet.
- Bake the empanadas for about 12 minutes. Allow to cool. Serve and enjoy!
