Homemade Potato Knishes

October 18, 2011 by overtimecook 14 Comments

Are you one of those people who thinks making homemade potato knishes from scratch is difficult?

I used to think so. Then I made them. And I realized it’s a lot easier than I imagined.

I guest posted the recipe and some instructional photos on The Spiffy Cookie. Check it out here.

Click here for the recipe.

Enjoy!

    I visited The Spiffy Cookie. Your knishes look wonderful and sound delicious. I’ve never had one but you do make them look easy to do so one day and I may just make some of my own. Probably before I ever get a chance to visit New York and try one 🙂

    I made these tonight (16 more minutes in the oven…) and have a pretty significant amount of filling leftover. Any suggestions on ways to use it up?

      Hi Tali,

      I can’t wait to hear how you like them! I’m surprised you had extra filling- the original recipe called for 8 potatoes and I wound up making an extra batch of dough because I had so much extra filling so I scaled it down.

      You can try adding some extra egg and flour to make “doughless” knishes. Bake it either in balls or in a loaf pan.

      Let me know how it comes out!

        Well. The good news is that we loved the knishes, and I put a nice bunch in the freezer for another time. (I cut a 1/4 stick of butter, by the way, and they were none the worse for it.)

        The bad news is that I tried making latkes out of the leftover filling (didn’t add anything) and they really didn’t work. I still have a bit of filling left, so I’ll try your suggestion before the end of the week. 🙂

          I’m glad you liked them Tali!

          Sorry about the filling. Let me know what happens if you bake it.

    These look really great. Do you have a good “cherry cheese” filling for these? My dad always talks about growing up and eating cherry cheese knishes…. they don’t sell them in Miami anywhere. looking to make some similar to this http://www.store.gabilas.com/product.sc?productId=19&categoryId=7
