Goya Mini Discos Dough For Turnover Pastries
What it is
Goya Mini Discos are small, round discs of pre-made dough specifically designed for creating turnovers and small pastries. They are typically made from flour, water, and shortening, resulting in a tender and flaky texture when baked. These convenient discs save time in the kitchen, making it easier to prepare homemade treats without the need to make dough from scratch. They are a popular choice for both sweet and savory fillings.
How people cook with it
These versatile dough discs are perfect for quickly assembling individual portions of baked goods.
- Sweet fruit turnovers
- Savory meat turnovers
- Small empanaditas
- Dessert pastries
To use Goya Mini Discos, simply remove them from the packaging and allow them to thaw slightly if frozen. Place your desired filling in the center of one disc. Moisten the edges of the dough with water or egg wash, then fold another disc over the top, pressing the edges firmly to seal. You can crimp the edges with a fork for a decorative finish. Bake until golden brown and the filling is heated through. They are ideal for oven baking.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to larger pastry sheets, these mini discs are pre-portioned and shaped, eliminating the need for cutting and shaping. Their smaller size is perfect for individual servings and makes assembly quicker for small turnovers.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Store any unused Goya Mini Discos in their original packaging in the refrigerator. Ensure the package is tightly sealed to prevent the dough from drying out. For longer storage, they can be kept frozen, following the instructions on the packaging.
