Hamantashen

Submitted by Kelly Wing, Sous Chef with the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue Catering Department

 

Ingredients

1 L (4 cups) Flour
4 Eggs
187 ml (3/4 cup) Sugar
250 ml (1 cup) Margarine, Softened
15 ml (1 tbsp) Orange Juice
10 ml (2 tsp) Baking Powder
5 ml (1 tsp) Vanilla Extract
  Pinch of Salt
5 ml (1 tsp) Orange Rind
   
Ingredients for Filling
454 g (1 pound) Strawberry or Apricot Preserves

 

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease cookie sheets.

Place all ingredients except filling in a large mixer bowl and beat together. You may add a drop more juice or flour, depending on consistency of dough. Roll dough into a ball. Prepare dough and divide dough into four portions.

On a floured board, roll out each portion to about 1/8-inch thick. Using a round biscuit or cookie cutter, cut 3-inch circles. Place 1/2 to 2/3 teaspoon of desired filling in the centre of each circle.

To shape into triangles, lift up right and left sides, leaving the bottom down and bring both sides to meet at the centre above the filling. Bring top flap down to the centre to meet the two sides. Pinch edges together.

Place on greased cookie sheets 1 inch apart and bake at 350°F preheated oven for 20 minutes.
