  • Don't overcook the potatoes: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a food processor to make the dough: This will make the dough smooth and easy to work with.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out: This will make it less sticky and easier to handle.
  • Use a pastry brush to glaze the knishes with egg wash: This will give them a golden brown color.
  • Bake the knishes until they are golden brown and the filling is heated through: This will take about 30 minutes.

These healthy broccoli knishes are a delicious and satisfying Passover treat. They are made with a whole wheat dough and are filled with a mixture of broccoli, potatoes, and cheese. They are also baked, not fried, so they are a healthier option than traditional knishes. These knishes are perfect for a Passover meal or any other occasion.
