Hamantaschen Dough Aka Hamantashen Oznei Haman Recipes

Steps:

• Make the dough: Beat the butter, both sugars, the egg, milk, vanilla and maple extract (if using) with a mixer on medium-high speed. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and beat until fully incorporated.
• Divide the dough into thirds and wrap each portion tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Form the hamantaschen: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 375˚ F. Roll out one piece of dough on a floured surface until 1/8 inch thick. Use the rim of a juice glass to cut out 3-inch circles. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• Spoon a teaspoon of the apricot preserves into the center of each circle of dough.
• Fold in the edges of the dough to form a triangle, pinching at the corners to keep the filling in but leaving the center filling slightly exposed.
• Bake the hamantaschen: Arrange the hamantaschen on 2 baking sheets (use nonstick pans or line the pans with parchment paper).
• Bake, rotating and switching the pans halfway through, until the hamantaschen are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Let cool a few minutes on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Steps:

• To make the Filling: Place the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes or until soft and the liquid is absorbed. Add water, if needed. Let cool.
• To make the Dough: Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, egg, egg white, and orange zest. Add it to the processor and pulse to mix, being careful not to over mix. Divide into 2 disks and chill 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to 1/4-inch thick. Cut out 2 1/2 to 3-inch disks. (You can re-roll the scrapes to make more disks.) Place a disk of dough down and place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center. Pinch the disk in 3 places to form a triangular shape with the filling still showing in the center. They will look like 3 cornered hats. Place 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Continue until all the disks are made.
• Bake for 12 to 14 minutes.

Steps:

• For the filling, simply chop all the ingredients fine in your food processor and mix well.
• For the dough, cream sugar and eggs.
• Add oil and mix until it turns pale yellow and is no longer shiny.
• Mix in lemon and vanilla.
• In another bowl combine flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
• Slowly add dry ingredients to wet. When it becomes difficult to mix, add more flour and knead.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• To assemble cookies, roll out dough (in batches) to desired thickness (maybe a little thinner than 1/4") and cut into circles of desired size (can use cookie cutter, inverted glass, etc). Put a dollop of filling in the center of each cookie and fold up into a triangular shape, pinching the corners and leaving the center open so that the filling peeks out.
• Bake cookies for about 15 minutes until they are beginning to brown. I've always greased the cookie sheet very lightly with non-stick spray, but I don't know that you need to.

Steps:

• Beat eggs and sugar until creamy.
• Add oil and beat. Add juice and extracts. Add baking powder. Gradually add flour until it becomes a good dough consistency.
• Fill with favorite filling and shape.
• Bake at 350°F on lined baking sheet for about 10 minutes (until bottom is golden).

Steps:

• Mix applesauce, sugar and egg white. Mix flour, salt and baking powder and add to applesauce mixture. Add milk and vanilla,.
• Mix well with hands. Form into a ball and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
• Divide dough into 16 small balls. Roll out each ball to a 3.5 inch diameter circle (you will need extra flour for hands and board, since the dough is sticky).
• Place in the center of each circle one (heaping) teaspoons of the filling.
• Form triangles by folding over edges of circle and pinch to create three corners, leaving a small amount of the filling in the center uncovered.
• Bake on a sprayed cookie sheet, at 375° F, 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Starter:.
• Place the milk in a large mixing bowl and mix with the water, yeast, sugar and flour to make a sloppy batter.
• Cover and allow to stand for 20- 30 minutes.
• Dough:.
• Stir the sponge and add it to the sugar, melted butter, vanilla, eggs, salt and enough flour to make a soft, kneadable dough.
• Knead for 5 to 8 minutes until smooth.
• Cover well with greased plastic wrap and let rise until doubled.
• At this stage, you can also refrigerate until the next day but allow dough to reach room temperature before proceeding.
• Divide the dough in half.
• Work, with one piece, leaving the rest of the dough covered with a tea towel.
• Roll the dough out to about 1/4 inch thick.
• Cut out 3 inch circles with a cookie cutter or glass.
• Brush the circles with egg wash.
• Put tablespoon of desired filling in each.
• Bring 3 edges together to form triangles.
• Brush the filled hamantaschen with additional egg eash and sprinkle lightly with sugar if desired.
• Repeat with remaining dough.
• 15 minutes before baking, preheat the oven to 350°F Line 1 or 2 baking trays with parchment paper.
• Place the hamantashcen on the trays.
• Cover lightly with a tea towel and let them rise 15 to 25 minute.
• Bake 18 to 20 minutes until medium golden.
• Cool on the baking sheets.

Steps:

• For the dough: Beat the butter with the sugar until light and creamy. Beat in the vanilla and egg yolks. Sift over the flour, stir in, then work into a dough with your hands. Knead until smooth. Put in plastic wrap and chill while fixing the filling.
• For the filling: Put the poppy seeds, honey, sugar, lemon rind and juice into a pan with 4 tbl water and bring to the boil, stirring. Remove from the heat and beat in the almonds, egg and raisins. Cool while working with dough.
• Preheat the oven to 350 and line two large baking sheets with baking parchment paper. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8" thickness. Using a plain round 3" cutter, stamp out rounds.
• Place a heaped teaspoon of filling on each round. Brush the edges with beaten egg, then bring the sides to the center to form a tricorn shape. Seal the edges together well and place on prepared baking sheets, spaced slightly apart.
• Brush with beaten egg and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.
