Mandlen Brot image

Cold day, time for some chicken soup...It's simmering away, filling the kitchen with such smells and memories. Then I remember mandlen, which are small pieces of dough that go into the soup. Here is a peek into my childhood...

Time 40m

Yield 40 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Beat eggs and oil together until light yellow.
  • Sift flour, baking powder and salt into bowl.
  • Add egg mixture, mixing with a fork until it is too thick for the fork; then continue to knead by hand until smooth.
  • Lightly flour work surface. Break off pieces of dough and roll into ropes about pencil thick or just a bit thicker.
  • Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  • Cut ropes into about 1/2 inch size pieces.*
  • Place on sheet. You can fill the sheet but don't let mandlen touch.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown, shaking the pan every five minutes.
  • Cool completely before putting away (IF there is any leftovers!). Keep in tightly closed container, in cool dry place.
  • Do not refrigerate!
  • * Don't worry about being perfect, these are not pastries. They are for eating, not for showing!
  • The amount of serving will vary with the thickness and cut size, so the amount I show may not be what you get.
