Pumpkin Empanadas

Empanadas are little individual turnovers, formed in the shape of half moons and eaten as finger food. Empanadas can be either sweet or savory, and we offer you a recipe for each. You can decide whether your guests would prefer sweet or savory Empanadas. The sweet version reminds us of Pumpkin Pie while the savory version features fresh herbs and Mexican cotija cheese. Either would be appropriate for this autumn celebration.
