Purim is March 3 this year, and if you have not started planning your baking, now is the time. These small, triangular cookies — golden at the edges, tender in the center, hiding a pocket of sweet filling — are not just a holiday treat. They are a tradition you can hold in your hand. Every fold carries the memory of a people who refused to be destroyed, wrapped in butter and sugar and a generous spoonful of mohn.

Hamantaschen are the centerpiece of mishloach manot, the Purim mitzvah of sending food gifts to friends and neighbors. Bake one batch and you have enough to fill plates for everyone you love. Wrap them up, walk them over, leave them on a doorstep. This is what Purim tastes like — the joy of giving, sealed inside a triangle of cookie dough.

Below you will find everything: two complete dough versions (dairy and pareve), five filling options including a traditional poppy seed filling made from scratch, the precise folding technique that keeps your hamantaschen closed during baking, and complete kosher guidance for every ingredient. Whether you are baking your first batch or your fiftieth, this recipe will not let you down.

Purim 2026 falls on Tuesday, March 3. Start baking now — hamantaschen freeze beautifully and mishloach manot plates do not assemble themselves. Bake once, gift to everyone you love.
