Traditional hamentaschen are made with vegetable oil, or margarine, all purpose flour, white sugar and eggs. They are filled with sugary jam or poppy seed filling, then topped with an egg wash. My healthy hamantashen recipe calls for almond flour, tahini, arrowroot powder, ground flax and maple syrup. The result is a delicious gluten-free hamantashen cookie that is also vegan and sugar free. Traditional poppy seed hamantaschen filling is sweetened with raisins and maple syrup.
