Step 5 of 6
Lay an empanada disc on your counter and dampen the perimeter with a bit of warm water. Scoop a generous tablespoon of the prepared filling into the middle, fold the pastry over, and crimp the edges shut using the tines of a fork. Continue this process with the rest of the ingredients. Arrange the assembled empanadas on the baking sheets and coat them with a wash of beaten egg.
