Form the dough into 1” balls. Place in tortilla press to form a small circle. Place a spoonful of filling in the middle of the circle, wet the outside of the circle, and fold in half, gently pressing out any excess air. Crimp the edge of the empanada, using a fork to seal the edge. Place on an oiled baking sheet.
