Ingredients
Scale
1 cup corn masa flour (alternatively, use all-purpose flour for a different texture)
2 cups shredded cheese (consider mozzarella for a milder flavor or cheddar for a punch)
1 cup black beans, cooked and mashed (you can substitute with refried beans or lentils for a twist)
Fresh cilantro, chopped (dried cilantro works in a pinch)
2 ripe avocados, mashed (substituting with applesauce can create a sweeter variant)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to your spice preference or omit completely)
Sour cream or Greek yogurt for topping (the latter provides a healthier option)
Salt to taste
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the corn masa flour and salt. Gradually add water until the mixture becomes pliable and holds together well. Use your hands to knead it gently for about 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into balls about the size of a golf ball and flatten each ball into a disk about ¼ inch thick.
On one half of each disk, layer the mashed black beans, a spoonful of cheese, and a sprinkle of cilantro. Fold the dough over and seal the edges.
Heat a skillet over medium heat, adding a splash of olive oil. Cook each filled Antojito for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Once cooked, arrange your Antojitos on a large platter and top with mashed avocado, sour cream or Greek yogurt, and cilantro.
