Assembly:
- Place a tablespoon amount of filling on each of the cut out dough rounds and fold in half.
- Using the tip of a fork, seal off the edge of each perogie.
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil and cook all of the pierogis for 5-7 minutes.
- Strain off the perogie and pat dry.
- In a large sauté pan, heat up butter flavoured coconut oil and cook perogies over medium heat for 2 minutes on each side.
