Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Grease 2 baking sheets with cooking spray and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add onions and cook for 4 minutes, or until translucent.
- Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
- Add ground beef, cumin, paprika and pepper.
- Cook, stirring and breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and mix in the chopped olives; set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet puff pastry dough to 1/8 inch thickness.
- Cut out 6 circles, each should be about a 5-inch diameter. I use a large round cookie cutter.
- Repeat with the second sheet of pastry dough.
- Spoon about a tablespoon of the meat mixture onto center of each dough round; set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl combine egg and water and lightly beat with a fork. Using a pastry brush, paint edges of dough with the prepared egg wash.
- Fold dough over meat, shaping it into half-moon shape; gently press down edges and twist down to seal.
- Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Transfer the empanadas to previously prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1-1/2 inches space between the empanadas.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until puffed up and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and serve immediately.
