Amazing. How could I not try this recipe? Bacon jam is an incredible condiment, and these tasty, flaky little empanadas make an impressive breakfast, or a light lunch with some salad. They're salt and smoky and sweet and totally irresistible. Austen gave me this cookbook for Christmas. Isn't the cover so cute? I can't wait to try more recipes, but this one is definitely a keeper!
