Laham Abjeen Hamantaschen

For the past month I have been trying to come up with a new Hamantaschen recipe that no one has done yet. Easier said than done! I really had to put on my thinking cap to come up with these Laham Abjeen Hamantaschen.
Laham Abjeen have always been one of my favorites. I tried them once at a fancy bar mitzvah kiddish and I instantly fell in love with them. My Laham Abjeen Hamataschen are a great, savory version of everyones favorite Purim cookie. They add a Persian flare to your Purim Seuda!
