Poppy Seed Filling is a classic Hamantaschen filling and my personal favorite. I like making it from scratch and giving it a little extra love by adding rose water and vanilla. Be sure to try this filling in our fun and delicious Unicorn Hamantaschen recipe.
Ingredients
1 cup poppy seeds
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup milk
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp food grade rose water
1 tsp vanilla extract
zest of 1 orange
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine poppy seeds, honey, milk and orange zest
Bring to a boil and simmer on low until mixture thickens - about 8-10 minutes
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla, rose water and butter
Let cool slightly and add to a food processor or blender. Pulse or blend to desired consistency
Store in the refrigerator until ready to use
