These walnut rugelach are soft, crumbly and flaky. This walnut rugelach recipe is based on Mom's classic recipe and filled with a cranberry-apricot and walnut filling.
Prep Time: 1 hour
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Ingredients 

Servings: 72 rugelach cookies

Ingredients for Rugelach Cookies:

  • 1 cup 226 g unsalted butter, melted (not hot)
  • 1 cup 8oz warm milk (2% or whole milk)
  • 4 cups 500 g all-purpose flour, measured correctly*
  • 3/4 Tbsp active dry yeast

For Rugelach Cookie Filling/ Topping:

  • 10 oz apricot preserves
  • 1 cup Fisher brand walnuts
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries/craisins, (or dried cherries, or raisins)
  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Powdered sugar to generously dust cookies

Instructions

How to Make Walnut Rugelach Recipe:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together 1 cup walnuts, 3/4 cup dried cranberries, 2 Tbsp sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon until ground up.
  • Melt 1 cup butter over low heat (it should be warm, not hot), and add it to the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with dough hook attachment. Stir in 1 cup warm milk.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 cups flour (measured correctly*) and 3/4 Tbsp yeast. With mixer on speed 2, add flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time, letting it incorporate with each addition and scraping down the bowl as needed then continue mixing/kneading the dough another 3-5 mins. Dough should be very soft and won't stick to your hands.
  • Divide dough into 5 pieces and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Work with one piece at a time, rolling it into an 11-inch circle. You should not have to flour the work surface. Spread 3 heaping Tablespoons of preserves evenly over the surface then sprinkle the top with 1/3 cup of the nut mixture.
  • Use a pizza cutter, slice through the circle (just like a pizza), cutting into 12 triangles. Roll each triangle from the outside in then transfer rugelach with the points facing down to a parchment-lined baking sheet.***
  • Let cookies rise in a warm oven (no more than 100˚F) for 30-45 minutes or until noticeably puffed and about 50% larger. Remove from the oven and preheat oven to 350˚F. Bake in preheated oven for 30 min or until tops are lightly golden. Transfer to serving platter while still warm and dust each layer generously with powdered sugar - remember the dough has no sugar in it so don't skimp on this last step :).

Notes

***You can fit them all on a large 3/4 sheet baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing about finger width apart, or divide between 2 half sheet pans if you don't have a huge baking pan.
*To measure flour correctly, spoon flour into a dry ingredients measuring cup and scrape off the top, or if you have a scale, weigh out 500 grams.

    The most perfect soft yet crunchy cookie! Thank you for the recipe! I filled them with cherry preserves, like the kind you use for cherry pie. I just added one cherry per roll (the way my mom always makes them) and they came out fantastic! My oven bakes hot so I turned my baking time down to 23 minutes. Perfect golden brown goodies!

    I made a half-recipe these yesterday and they turned out great. The dough weighed in at 500 grams and I divided it into 3 parts so my circles were not as big as the ones you made with a full batch divided into 5 parts. The dough was wonderful to work with but after rolling out my first circle, I did sprinkle a bit (less than a tablespoon) of flour on my rolling mat for the other two circles. The circles were cut into 8 slices instead of 12. This gave me 24 cookies. To avoid potential pitfalls, I make a point of reading through the comments on your recipes before I start mine. To avoid the over-baking, I put my oven timer on for 10 minutes less than the recipe called for and monitored the baking until the cookies were just golden brown. It made a nice flaky crust. The texture was similar to what I used to make with my mother and left-over pie dough. We sprinkled cinnamon sugar on the scraps, rolled them up and baked them.

    Hi Natasha! Quick question – my oven can’t pre-heat to lower than 175! How do you get it to 100 to let the dough rise??? I just put rogaliki in at the “keep food warm” option but I am not sure what temp it is … Ugh …

    Reply

    • Natashas Kitchen
      January 7, 2022

      Hi Julia, the keep warm setting usually is 170 to 200 F depending on your oven. That will be far too warm for the dough and kill the yeast. My old oven didn’t go below 170, so I let it preheat to the lowest setting then propped the oven door open with a wooden spoon. If your oven has a temperature gauge, you can watch it go to 100 and then turn the oven off and put your stuff into the oven for proofing with the door completely shut. I hope this helps!

    The combination of apricot with walnuts in the filling was delicious. However, the bottom of the pastry became hard due to the filling spilling out while baking. Next time, I will just use a little less filling and just coat the pastry. However, that is why I rated this recipe 4/5.

        I have loved, loved all your other recipes, but I think this one could use some adjustments. I personally prefer filling without the jam. I noticed that it really overpowered the dough. I would add sugar to the dough and also brush the tops with milk or egg wash before baking so they don’t get so dry.

            Baked them for 25min.

            I couldn’t get 12 cuts per ball of dough, I tried but only got 8.

      Hi Ana, I have not tried this recipe with baking powder, since baking is such a science, I can’t advise. If you experiment, please let me know how you like that recipe!

    I ave been making rugelach for years, but always with a cream cheese dough. I’m anxious to try yours recipe. With regard to fillings, I’ve used all kinds, raspberry, cherry, lemon and Nutella to name a few. All are delicious, but apricot remains my favorite. So, here is my question: whenever I have used preserves I have found that they breakdown and “run” a little and as a result I have been using the Solo brand of pastry filling(s) which can be more costly. Do you ever have a problem of your preserves thinning out and if so what correction would you suggest?

      The cookies turned out great other than the same thing happening with me, all the preserves caramelized on the baking paper and the bottom of the cookies had a bitter taste due to the preserves being pooled on the bottom and burning. Any idea how to fix this?

      Hi Stacey! I would use the same amount of nuts as listed in the recipe for which ever kind you decide to use. Regarding the chocolate you would need enough to make about 15 TBSP worth. Since we spread about 3 TBSP per round. I hope this helps.

        Hi Natasha, love your recipes and I have tries some with success especially the wreath bread, love it, my friends are making it now also…However I have to say this recipe is a bust for me, dough is not at all flaky, the first baking batch came hard, cooked a lot less with the second still not flaky or buttery like rugulach should be…I make the Ina Gardner recipe and it is always delicious…I followed your recipe to a T sooo…what do you think went wrong? Your recipe doesn’t require cream cheese could that be the problem? Thanks,

          Hi Maria, Ina’s rugelach is more of the Jewish version while this is the Ukrainian version and normally produces a softer cookie. If they came out hard, my first thought is maybe too much flour was added. Check out our post here on measuring ingredients which may help. Also, be sure that the butter is melted and then cooled – if you add hot butter, it can ruin the dough and make the cookies tough. I hope that helps!

    These are sooooooooooooooooooo good! Everyone wanted to steal a piece. The only problems are :
    1. The dried cranberries (they’re whole) didn’t “chop up” in the food processor. I had to roll the rogaliki up slowly and carefully, to get the craisins in.
    2. I haven’t even added all the flour and the dough was already tough and didn’t come together that well or roll out really good. Like dough flakes mashed together. We managed it though. And it was worth it. The apricot preserves are an amazing touch too. I loved them! And of course, the powdered sugar sums it all up! 😉

      Hi Olga, I’m so happy you loved it! 🙂 It sounds like maybe your dried cranberries were either very moist or the food processor blades may be dull? In those cases, it would be easier to chop with a knife. Also, flaky dough could mean there was too much flour. This post on measuring ingredients for baking may help 🙂

    Some of the ovens don’t go down to 100F (only 170F). Since the yeast gets deactivated if the temperature is too high, I warmed up the oven (350F is fine). My glass top stove gets warm when the over is on. So I covered the baking sheet with plastic wrap and a towel, and let it sit on the glass top for 30-45 min. It did the trick and the cookies rose by 50%.
    Is there another way to let them rise if your oven doesn’t go down to 100F?

      Hi Maryna, our old oven didn’t go below 170 also so I let it preheat to the lowest setting then propped the oven door open with a wooden spoon. If your oven has a temperature gauge, you can watch it go to 100 and then turn the oven off and put yoru stuff into the oven for proofing with the door completely shut.

      Hi Sivan, the plastic wrap is meant to keep the rest of the dough from drying out while you are working on the dough one piece at a time. Keep it covered while you are working and only until you are done rolling out all the pieces of dough.

        I baked those today. Everytime somebody mixes yeast with flour my inner voice say – it wont work for you! And it didn’t this time either. Over the years I learnt to dissolve yeast in milk or water before adding to dry ingridients. Therefore, I cant definitely say that the problem was coconut oil. The dough didnt rise. But you know what is funny – rugelach turned out tasty anyway))). Though I used Nutella instead of apricot jam.

          Hi Oksana! I’m so glad you enjoyed them and nutella sounds so good! I know what you mean about the yeast but this one doesn’t follow the rules and rises nicely :). I haven’t tried it with coconut oil so I’m not sure if that could be the culprit. I am always happy to help troubleshoot though – could it be that your yeast was no longer fresh or that your coconut oil or milk were too hot? Also, if they rise in an oven that is more than 100˚F, it will deactivate the yeast and keep it from rising. I hope that helps for next time.

Preferably with less work than rolling 72 pieces? 🙂 I’m not lazy, just don’t have too much time with 3 kids around…

      Maria, Hmmm… I’ve never really thought about that, but I think this is the easiest way to use it, especially with the pizza cutter. Nuttela will add more sweetness to the recipe than jam. Jam is more tart so I add more sugar. Thank you so much for sharing that with me.

      Hi Barb, I haven’t tried freezing these so I’m not sure. I think it’s worth a test, just do not add powdered sugar until they are fully thawed at room temperature so they don’t get gummy.

    Hi Natasha! Could you please tell me how long these would stay soft and fresh tasting for? (presuming they don’t get eaten first) Also, do you think they’d fare okay being mailed? Thank you for sharing this recipe and thanks to Fisher for sponsoring.

      Hi Amber, they stay great and soft up to 3 days if stored in an airtight container. I think they would do fine mailed as long as they are kept dry – I probably would not ship this to a very humid area because of the powdered sugar. I hope you love the cookies!

      Hi there, if you wanted to make it not-free, you can omit the nuts.

    If I don’t have a dough hook can I just mix the dough with my hands or it turns out better with the dough hook ?

      Hi Ruslana, it’s only easier with the mixer but you can absolutely mix by hand I would start mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon and then knead by hand for 5 minutes 🙂

    These look so delicious, I want to make them but I was wondering if I can omit the cinnamon? Is it going to ruin the taste of them?
    Cuz my family are not a big fan of cinnamon flavor.
    Thank u in advance!

        Natasha, these are absolutely amazing! I made these today and just had my first test try, and I absolutely love them! I’m taking the whole batch to work tomorrow in celebration of nurses week! I’m excited to see what everyone thinks! I will say though that I prefer the Rugelach cookie to be a little smaller than they turned out. I think next time, I’ll divide the dough into 6 or 7 sections. Thanks again for a great recipe!

    These are delicious. My mom or grandma make them all the time. But I think they are a little bit different. I think your next recipe should have to do with meat. Thanks for the recipes!

        I don’t have any specific recipe, but maybe I want a meat recipe because I really liked that homemade sausage video so maybe you should something like that

          Duly noted! Thank you for the suggestion and I’m so glad you enjoyed the homemade sausage video! I feel so good about putting that out there. I know it’s not for everyone but It’s been on my list of things to make for a long time 🙂

          I made these today and they were amazing!! I used demarara sugar in the filling, I assume the recipe meant to use white sugar but the demarara sugar worked nicely. Also, I mixed the ingredients for the filling by pulsing them in a Vitamix dry grains container, rather than using a food processor. Turned out really well. Thanks for the great recipe!

    Natasha – this looks great, definitely on my list for this weekend! Question on the flour though: your previous rugelach recipe (Russian Rugelach i.e. Mom’s famous Rogaliki) specifically lists Canadian flour as the best option. How are these different that you recommend AP?

      Oh great question and I’m glad you asked! I’ve done several tests with the all-purpose flour, modifying the measurements and sharing precisely how I measured the flour because the amount is important so you don’t end up with a dense cookie. Also, I changed the temperature and bake times to work better for all-purpose flour and the results were excellent! Mom approved! 🙂 I hope you love these 🙂
