Cornish Beef Pasties

Traditional Cornish pasties are usually very high in points because of buttery pastry. This lighter version keeps the flavor but swaps the crust for a low-point dough or wrap so you can enjoy them guilt-free.

Ingredients (Makes 4 pasties)

Filling

  • 200 g extra lean ground beef (96–99% lean) – 3–4 pts
  • 1 medium potato, diced small – 2 pts
  • ½ cup carrot, finely diced – 0 pts
  • ½ cup onion, diced – 0 pts
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce – 0 pts
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste

Low-Point Dough Options

Option 1 (lowest points)

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt

Option 2 (even easier)

  • 4 Ole Xtreme / low-carb wraps (about 1 pt each)

Instructions

  1. Cook the filling
    • In a skillet, cook the lean beef with onion until browned.
    • Add diced potato, carrot, Worcestershire, and spices.
    • Cook 5–7 minutes until slightly tender. Let cool.
  2. Make the dough (if not using wraps)
    • Mix flour and Greek yogurt until a dough forms.
    • Knead lightly and divide into 4 balls.
  3. Shape the pasties
    • Roll dough into small circles (or use wraps).
    • Place filling on one half.
    • Fold over and seal edges with a fork.
  4. Bake
    • Place on a parchment-lined tray.
    • Optional: brush lightly with egg wash.
    • Bake at 375°F / 190°C for 18–22 minutes until golden.

Weight Watchers Points (approx.)

  • Filling total: 4–5 points
  • Dough (Greek yogurt dough): about 4 points total

✅ Per pasty: ~2–3 WW points

💡 Even Lower Point Trick:

Use egg-roll wrappers or low-carb tortillas and air fry them — you can get them down to 1–2 points each.
