Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1 medium onion
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 2 cloves garlic
- 200 grams almond flour
- 50 grams coconut flour
- 3 large egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 50 grams butter
- 100 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until browned.
Grate the zucchini and dice the bell pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, oregano, and paprika. Stir well, then remove from heat and let cool.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and 2 beaten eggs. Mix until a dough forms.
Melt the butter and let it cool, then add it to the dough along with shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix until fully incorporated.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions, and roll each one between two sheets of parchment paper to form discs about 15cm in diameter.
Place a quarter of the beef mixture onto one side of each dough disc, then fold over to form a semi-circle and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
Beat the remaining egg and brush over each pastie to help them brown while baking.
Transfer the pasties onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
Let the pasties cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
