Classic Hamantaschen {Dairy-Free}

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes

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.
