Place dough between two pieces of parchment paper, or a silicone mat and parchment paper to avoid sticking. Flatten out with a rolling pin into a rectangle shape. Cut dough into five strips to make separate empanadas.
Spoon on seasoned ground beef and shredded cheese on each strip of dough. Don’t overfill, or your empanadas may be hard to seal. Fold over dough and pinch the edges together on both sides using a fork if necessary. If you’re having a hard time stealing your edges, try wetting them with damp fingers.
Place your silicone mat, or paper on a baking tray. Bake 11 to 15 minutes, or until your empanadas are evenly browned.
Serve alongside keto-friendly dipping sauces like salsa, sour cream, guacamole, etc.
