Description
Pierogies (sometimes spelled perogies or pirogi) are Eastern European dumplings traditionally made with a soft dough that’s filled with a variety of ingredients. The most common filling is potato and cheese, but you’ll also find versions stuffed with sauerkraut, ground meat, mushrooms, spinach, or even sweet fillings like fruit.
Ingredients
- 16 oz frozen pierogies (potato & cheddar recommended)
- 2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter

- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Chipotle Sour Cream (optional but amazing):
- ⅔ cup sour cream
- 1 chipotle pepper in adobo
- 2 tsp adobo sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Caramelize onions:
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add onions, salt, and pepper. Cook ~10 min until soft.
- Stir in balsamic vinegar and cook 5 more min until golden and jammy.
- Prepare sheet pan:
- Spray with olive oil or nonstick spray.
- Toss pierogies in olive oil and arrange in a single layer.
- Sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Spoon caramelized onions (and butter) over pierogies.
- Roast:
- Bake 20–30 min, flipping halfway, until pierogies are golden and crisp.

- Blend sour cream, chipotle, and adobo sauce until smooth.
- Serve:

Notes
These crispy sheet pan pierogies pair wonderfully with sour cream, caramelized onions, or a fresh green salad. For extra flavor, sprinkle with fresh herbs like dill or parsley before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven to keep them crispy.
