Empanada Pie

Serve this empanada pie with a salad, hard-boiled eggs, salsa or sour cream, and shredded Mexican cheese (optional).

Step: 1

Place onion in a food processor and process to a medium chop. Use a garlic press to add garlic to the chopped onion.

Step: 2

Preheat a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add oil, onion, and garlic to the hot pan. Reduce heat to medium and saute until golden, about 5 minutes.

Step: 3

Place mushrooms in the food processor and process to a medium dice. Stir into the onion mixture and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Meanwhile, process olives to a fine mince and set aside.

Step: 4

Add oregano, paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes, and pepper to the pan; cook and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Crumble in ground beef and cook, breaking up with a spoon or spatula, until thoroughly browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in olives. Remove from heat and cool for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step: 5

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Line the plate with 1 pie crust.

Step: 6

Carefully spoon the cooled beef mixture into the crust. Press the second crust on top. Slice air vents in the top crust.

Step: 7

Beat egg and water together in a small bowl. Brush egg wash thoroughly over the complete surface of the pie.

Step: 8

Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
