Keep these Hamantaschen simple with sauce and cheese, or fill up wheat tortillas (wraps) with any of your favorite fillings.
Comes Chodesh Adar (and this year, come Purim Katan) and we try to bring in the spirit of Purim into the house. What says Purim more than Hamentashen? Hamentschen.
Yes, you can make classic Hamantaschen. Yet, we’ve always been fans of the savory Hamantaschen-inspired recipes like deli Hamantaschen, eggroll Hamantaschen (yum!). These meat tortillas Hamantaschen work great as a dinner or appetizer for the Purim seudah. You can also use pizza rounds to make these Hamantaschen 4 easy ways.
These Pizza Bourekas use our favorite wheat wraps. There’s no rolling dough and they take minutes to prepare. Dinner is done and Purim is felt in the air!
Place sauce on the wrap
in the bottom half.
Add cheese.
Fold into a triangle.
Fold the other side, overlapping so the wrap stays nice and closed when baking.
Fold the bottom up.
They’ll look a little like a sailors hat with a point.
Fold in the right side.
Fold in the left side.
Flip over so the seams are side down on a lined baking tray.
Brush well with a beaten egg.
Top with sesame seeds.
Bake at 425°F for 10-15 minutes or
until crispy at the edges and the cheese is fully melted.
Serve with Rotev pizza or your favorite pizza dipping sauce.

I do it in the Betty, just delicious!
Such a smart idea to do it in the Betty Crocker. it looks so easy to make and is perfect for lunch/supper!!
Can you refrigerate or freeze between steps? Like if I want to prep in the morning and bake when I get home from work?
Was a hit! Came out great on the Betty Crocker.
