Instructions
Dough
- In a large bowl or stand mixer whisk eggs and sugar until blended. Add oil and whisk for a minute, it should thicken. Whisk in water, vanilla and orange zest.
- Add baking powder, salt and 2 cups of flour, mixing with spoon or spatula until the dough starts to come together. Stir in remaining 3 cups flour and mix until dough forms and there is no dry flour. Cover and refrigerate for an 30 minutes.
Assembly
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Roll out dough to a 1/4-inch thickness, and using a cup or 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out circles. Gather dough scraps and roll them out again and repeat cutting circles for about 3 dozen.
- Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle. Bring up the 3 corners and pinch dough firmly together to form a triangle, allowing filling to be exposed. Place on cookie sheet. (See Note 1)
- Bake for 15-17 minutes and bottom is golden. Let cool on wire rack.
Notes
- To ensure the corners from not splitting you can use an egg wash. After forming the Hamantaschen cookies with the filling, brush all sides and corners of each cookie before baking.
