Polish Blueberry Pierogi: Pierogi Z Jagodami

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, sour cream, and butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
  2. On a floured surface, knead the dough until smooth. Roll out the dough and cut it into circles using a round cutter or a glass.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the blueberries, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Place a spoonful of the blueberry filling onto each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling and press the edges to seal.
  4. In a large pot of boiling water, cook the pierogi in batches for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and let drain.
  5. Optional: Melt some butter in a skillet and lightly brown the cooked pierogi for a crispy texture.
