Empanadas de Manzana

These Baked Apple Empanadas are famous in Mexico, and combine 3 traditional elements typically seen in Mexican-style empanadas: A flaky pastry that is baked (not fried), a sweet fruit filling and a coating of sugar that lends an irresistible crunch to the crust. Here, tart granny smith apples are the fruit of choice, and are spiked with cinnamon and cloves before getting stuffed into the dough and baked. For an authentic Mexican experience, serve these little treats for breakfast or dessert with coffee or hot chocolate.
