Homemade and gluten-free perogies aren’t the easiest, but oh so worth it. Perogieย recipes can beย infused, or filledย with some of your favorite mashed recipes. ย
When making a gluten-free dough remember it doesn’t work quite like the gluten-full version. Hence, it is a challenge. Furthermore, making the dough thin, even more challenging. The dough has a tendency to be a little thick. In other words, denser perogies. I try to thin out my dough as best as I can. My suggestion when they are this dense, don’t put so many on your plate. Your belly will notice and so might your family or friends.
In short, have fun in the kitchen, don’t take yourself too seriously. Subscribe, share, and let me know how โYOUโ made it your own. Share your positive comments and suggestions.ย โค๏ธ from VGFL.
Ingredients
Dough
- 4 cups gluten free flour , I use King Arthur All Purpose Flour
- 3 teaspoons xanthan gum or ground flax seed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk , warmed
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
Filling
- 1 small head cauliflower cooked and drained
- 1/2 cup cannellini beans , rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Dough
- In a large bowl, add all ingredients and mix well until combined. Mix all together to form dough; cover bowl and set aside.
Filling
- In food processor or blender, blend cauliflower, cannellini beans, nutritional yeast, basil and salt until smooth.
Perogies
- On a floured surface, roll out dough as thin as possible.
- Using 3″ round pastry cutter, cut dough.
- Fill one side of perogie with a teaspoon of stuffing mixture.
- Wet one edge with your finger and fold over gently pinching side.
- In large pot of boiling salted water, gently place 6 perogies at a time.
- When the perogies float to the surface they are done. Repeat with remaining perogies.
- Serve immediately with the sauce of your choice or just a bit of olive oil and sprinkled basil.

Can the almond milk be substituted with another dairy/nut free milk?

Sabrina,
Sorry for the delay in response. I actually don’t use almond milk anymore since my daughter found out she is allergic. I often use oat milk since she also has a soy allergy.
Thanks for reaching out.

Mine stuck together after. Any tips on how to store without them all sticking together?
Didnโt want them super oily either!
Thanks.

Gluten-free perogies are tough to store without having them stick together. Honestly, I haven’t made them in a while. I will make them this week and let you know if I come up with a solution. Hmmm
Thanks for reaching out!
