Empadão is a rich, flaky savory pie filled with a creamy mixture of shredded chicken, hearts of palm, olives, corn, peas, and sometimes cream cheese (requeijão) or shrimp, all baked inside a buttery, shortcrust-style pastry shell. The top crust is often glazed for a golden finish, and the filling varies by region and household.

Popular for lunches, festive occasions, and bakery counters in states like Goiás, Minas Gerais, and São Paulo, empadão is the larger cousin of the empadinha (mini pie), offering a comforting balance of creamy and crunchy in every bite.
