How To Make Muffin Tin Taco Bites

1. Prepare the Filling:

Cook the ground beef or turkey in a skillet over medium heat until browned.

Drain any excess fat.

Add taco seasoning, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese.

Stir well and set aside.

2. Make the Dough:

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Pour in milk and stir until just combined.

3. Assemble the Taco Bites:

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Flatten portions of dough into discs.

Spoon filling onto each disc and seal the edges to form a ball.

Place each ball in a greased muffin tin.

4. Bake to Perfection:

Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

5. Top with Freshness:

While baking, mix shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and red onions in a bowl.

6. Serve with Style:

Let taco bites cool slightly.

Top with the fresh lettuce mixture.

Serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
