This recipe comes from the Low fat Vegetarian Jewish Cookbook. These are probably the best Knishes I've ever made. I make mine round but you can make them square also. I serve them with Vegan sour cream or Dijon Mustard.

SAUERKRAUT KNISHES

I got this recipe from The Lowfat Jewish Vegetarian Cookbook by Debra Wasserman. This recipe is very simple and quite tasty. I used spelt flour in this recipe and a light corn meal flour for my dusting flour. I also made my knishes 4 inches around instead of square as I find them easier to work with. I brushed the top with plain soy creamer. I topped mine off with a dollop of Vegan sour cream.
