4 Ingredients Peanut butter Hamantaschen {Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free}

Call me crazy for taking the classic Peanut Butter Cookies and making them “purim style” in hamantaschen shape. This was the genius idea of my son and niece who wanted to make peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips, but changed the shape of the cookies mid-way through the process, and although I was skeptical, it worked.

If you are looking for an easy recipe to have some baking fun with the little ones, these 4 ingredients Peanut Butter Hamantaschen with chocolate filling might be what you are looking for.

Turning a classic into Peanut Butter Hamantaschen

To make these Peanut Butter Hamantaschen you’ll need 4 simple ingredients, you probably have at home right now: peanut butter, eggs, sugar and chocolate chips, ganache or nutella (or your filling of preference).

The process couldn’t be easier, just mix the ingredients in bowl (except for the chocolate chips), as you would when making the classic peanut butter cookies, and and mix with a fork or hand mixer until it has the consistency of a thick batter.

After this what is left is portioning the cookies, shaping and baking. I find that smaller cookies are easier to handle, so I weigh portions of 25-30 grams each. Flatten each one in your hands, pinch with a fork, place the filling in the center and shape. Transfer to a baking sheet for baking, and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 12 minutes.

Classic Hamantaschen {Dairy-Free}

Classic Hamantaschen {Dairy-Free}

These must be the easiest crunchy on the outside and cake-y on the inside Classic Hamantaschen.

Easy to make,
No need equipment. Just basically a bowl, a whisk and an oven.

It is made with simple, accessible ingredients.
Seven to be exact.

To make these Classic Hamantaschen, you’ll need the most basic ingredients for baking: Flour, sugar, eggs, oil and some flavorings. In this particular recipe I used melted coconut oil to avoid the vegetable oil, but you can use vegetable oil if that’s what you have on hand.

What I love the most about these cookies is that you don’t need a stand-mixer or hand mixer. Your hands, a whisk and a bowl will do the trick. All you have to do is mix all ingredients (except flour) in a bowl. Then, incorporate most of the flour, making sure there is not dry bits when you finish mixing. Finally, add the last 50 grams or so of flour, and work the dough lightly with your hands to finish mixing very well (make sure you don’t overwork it).

Some of you may be wondering, “how do I weight eggs?” In USA, you’ll find a standard large egg is about 50 grams and, an extra large weighs approximately 55 grams. To measure eggs by weight start by cracking a few into a bowl until you are close to the amount you need. Once you are short a few grams, take another egg, whisk it on a separate bowl, and weigh the amount you need.

This is not your typical cookie dough. It is slightly sticky and that can make it a bit challenging to work. You can help yourself with baking paper, or just shape the cookies in your hands. It might be helpful to use gloves or lightly oil your palms before starting.

All you have to do is place one ball of dough in your hand, flatten it out to form a circle, place the jam on the center and fold in the edges to form a triangle. You can also roll out the dough and between two sheets of baking paper.

My favorite fillings for these cookies are berries jam, pineapple jam, Nutella or chocolate chips, and peanut butter, but the possibilities are endless. If you need some inspiration check these posts for some sweet and savory ideas:

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Prep Time 15

Cook Time 15

Ingredients

450 gr Self-Rising Flour*
130 gr Granulated sugar
125 gr Eggs
100 gr Coconut Oil, melted** (or vegetable oil)
1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Salt

Instructions

In a bowl mix eggs, sugar, oil, vanilla extract and salt.
Then, add 400gr of the flour and start mixing with a fork until you have a homogeneous dough, with no dry flour. Then, mix in the rest 50n grams with your hands.
Weight balls 0f 30 grams each (each ball will be a cookie). Place the dough on your hands, flatten the dough out, shaping a circle with approximately 1/4" thickness.
Place your preferred jam in the center, then fold in the sides of the circle to achieve a triangular shape.
Place carefully on a baking sheet covered with parchment and bake at 180°C (350°F) for aprox. 12-15 minutes or until the bottom is light golden brown.
Let them rest for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely if you really can wait lol (I couldn't!)

Notes

For this recipe I use Self-Rising flour because is the one I had at home. If you don't have it you can also mix All-Purpose with 1 1/2 (one and a hallf) teaspoon of baking powder. Mix well and sift a couple of times for even distribution of the baking powder.
You can also use vegetable oil for this recipe, or any other with mild flavor.
