## Ingredients

- 2 eggs
- 0.5 cup neutral oil
- 0.5 cup sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon apricot preserves
- 1 teaspoon raspberry preserves

## Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, ½ cup neutral oil, ½ cup sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract.
2. Add 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon kosher salt to the bowl and mix until a dough forms.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thick.
4. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter (or the top of a glass), cut out circles of dough. Re-roll scraps to make more cookies.
5. Place the dough circles onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Add 1 teaspoon of filling to the center of each circle.
7. Pinch the edges of each circle together to form triangles. Gently re-pinch the edges to ensure the filling does not leak out during baking.
8. Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.
9. Transfer the baked hamantaschen to a wire rack to cool completely.
