Looking for a tasty and unique appetizer that will impress your guests? Look no further than these delicious Buffalo Cauliflower Empanadas! This dish is a perfect combination of spicy buffalo sauce and crispy cauliflower, all wrapped up in a flaky empanada crust.
To make these empanadas, you will need the following ingredients:

- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 package of empanada dough
To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, mix together the chopped cauliflower, buffalo sauce, and melted butter until the cauliflower is well coated. Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly browned.
Once the cauliflower is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions.
Next, roll out the empanada dough and cut it into circles using a cookie cutter or a small bowl. Spoon a small amount of the cauliflower mixture onto each circle of dough, then fold the dough over and seal the edges with a fork.
Finally, bake the empanadas in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy. Serve hot and enjoy!
