The biggest dessert debate in our household: is #cheesecake a cake or is it really a pie? Whatever it is, we're here for it. Typically when baking this dessert, you need to place a pot full of water in your oven to create steam. Luckily our SuperSteam+ Wall Oven includes a Water Bath setting so you can skip this step and end up with an evenly baked cheesecake to enjoy.

Happy #NationalEmpanadaDay! We'll be celebrating w

Happy #NationalEmpanadaDay! We'll be celebrating with these beef empanadas baked in our SuperSteam+ Wall Oven with a side of creamy chimichurri dipping sauce. See below for details on how to make.
Ingredients:
-1 recipe puff pastry dough
-1 tablespoon olive oil
-1 large potato diced into 1/4 inch cubes
-1/2 large yellow onion diced
-3/4 cup chicken stock or beef broth
-3/4 pound ground beef
-1/2 cup peas
-1/2 teaspoon sea salt
-1/2 teaspoon cumin
-1/2 teaspoon chili powder
-1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
-black pepper to taste
-1 egg white
Instructions:
1. In a skillet, add olive oil, onions, and potatoes. Saute and allow to soften over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, and cover the pan with a lid. Continue cooking for about 10 minutes, until potatoes are soft and the broth has reduced by at least half.
2. Add the ground beef, and continue to cook for 10 minutes until the beef is fully cooked.
3. Add the peas, salt, cumin, chili powder, cinnamon, and black pepper. Stir well, and adjust seasonings to taste.
4. Cut the puff pastry dough in 16 even squares.
5. Take 1 piece of dough, press it between palms to create a disk, and then use a rolling pin to roll it out into a 6"" diameter circle.
6. Add 1/4 cup of the beef filling to the side of the dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling, and press the edges together. Use fingers to tuck and fold the dough around the edges, and then use a fork to press it together well.
7. Repeat with the other pieces of dough, adding 8 large empanadas to each of 2 lined baking trays.
8. Brush each empanada with the egg white, if desired. This gives the pastries a glossy, bakery style look.
9. Preheat the Sharp SuperSteam Built-In Wall Oven on the Steam Bake / Breads setting at 375F for 18 minutes.
10. Bake 1 tray of empanadas at a time.
11. Serve hot with the creamy chimichurri dipping sauce.
