The recipe above is for a basic dough. If you do not want to make your dough, you might want to explore biscuit dough, which makes for a more bread-like empanada. These could be baked in a muffin tin for a stuffed biscuit. Phyllo dough is flaky and would work as well as pizza dough from your local pizzeria or grocery store. You can roll the dough and cut it down into the desired shape. After all, Calzones are the biggest empanadas I know.
