Fig-Orange Hamantaschen


Ingredients:

for the cookie:
1/3 loving cup  butternut mash puree
1/3 loving cup crude canola oil
2 tablespoons fig preserves or jam (I used my homemade fig dear cardamom jam)
3/4 loving cup fresh-squeezed orangish juice (I used Cara Cara oranges)
3 cups flour
1 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 loving cup sugar

filling:
1/4 loving cup fig preserves or jam (I used my homemade fig dear cardamom jam)

Directions:

In a large bowl, mix together the butternut mash puree, canola oil, fig preserves, too orangish juice until smooth. Stir inwards the flour, baking pulverization too saccharide until a smoothen batter forms. Refrigerate xxx minutes to 1 hr or until trouble solid to the touch.


Preheat oven to 350°. Line 2 cookie sheets alongside silipats or parchment paper.

Roll the dough out onto a clean, floured surface. When the dough is virtually a 1/4 inch thick, cutting 2 1/2-3 inch* circles out of the dough. Place them on the prepared pans. Spoon a piddling less than 1 teaspoon preserves into the middle of each circle. Fold 3 sides towards the centre too press downwardly to shape a triangle.


Bake 12 minutes or until golden. Remove to wire rack to cool completely.


*I role a doughnut cutter  alongside the insert removed or a biscuit cutter.

Note: If using a fig jam/preserve that does non include honey, this recipe would endure vegan. Try my fig-port jam.

My thoughts:
I decided to brand hamantaschen because Purim is this weekend! I love hamantaschen too the even out behind why nosotros brand these cookies this fourth dimension of year.  I wrote an cream cheese based hamantaschen, chocolate hamantaschen, vegan hamantaschen filled alongside kiwi jam too orange ginger hamantaschen. Since I can, hamantaschen are a keen excuse to role upwards terminal year's homemade jam (just brand certain it is thick or it volition run) merely earlier canning flavor starts upwards again. This year's hamantaschen is packed alongside non exclusively sneaky mash but fig jam is baked into the dough for extra flavor too fiber.


I wasn't certain how the puree would locomote inwards a cookie recipe but the puree was therefore smooth, it actually seemed to "disappear" into the batter. Using the puree non exclusively added extra veggies but it gave it around of the volume I would ordinarily larn from butter therefore that way the recipe is vegan and pareve (without using margarine!). The dough was rattling slow to ringlet out too locomote alongside too tasted fantastic! No ane would know in that place was mash inwards the cookies if y'all didn't country them, they were merely lightly sweet.
