Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder. Cut in 6 tablespoons of cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk and 1 egg. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Make the Filling

In a skillet, sauté 1 finely chopped onion and 1 minced garlic clove in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until translucent. Add 1 pound of ground meat (such as beef, pork, or chicken) and cook until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs or spices. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Shape and Fill the Kibinai

Divide the dough into small portions and roll each one into a circle about 4 inches in diameter. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough in half, sealing the edges together. Use a fork to crimp the edges and create a decorative pattern.
