Meat Fatayer (Fatayer Lahme)

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup warm water or milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, and the yeast. Let sit 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and half the flour to the yeast mixture. On low speed, mix in the avocado oil, remaining milk, and remaining flour.
3. Increase mixer speed and knead until the dough comes together smoothly.
4. Shape the dough into a ball, place in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, until doubled.
5. Divide the dough into 18-20 small balls, using flour to prevent sticking. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, brown the ground beef over medium heat with 2 tablespoons avocado oil.
7. Add the diced onion and sauté a few minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 teaspoons seven spices. Cook until the onion softens, then set the meat mixture aside.
8. In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil and toast the pine nuts until golden. Stir them into the meat mixture.
9. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
10. Roll out each dough ball into a 5-inch circle. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center.
11. Bring two sides of the dough together and pinch to seal, then fold up the third side to form a triangle and pinch all edges firmly to close.
12. Arrange the fatayer on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops with beaten egg.
13. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
