Thick Kichel

Harvey Pearlman, The KITCHENer Rebbe

I did some searching and found this recipe which looks like it might be good for you. Try it and let me know. It calls for a very hot oven so be careful.

3 eggs
3 TBS light vegetable oil
a pinch of salt
2 TBS sugar
About 2 cups flour, or more

Preheat the oven to a maximum 525F degree (275C) with baking sheets lined with parchment paper.

Beat the eggs with the oil, salt and 2 tsp of the sugar. Gradually mix in the flour--first with a fork, then working it in with your hand--just enough to make a very soft dough that can be rolled out without sticking.

Divide into 2 balls and roll out with a floured rolling pin onto a floured surface- to about 1/4 inch. Sprinkle the top with the rest of the sugar and gently roll the rolling pin over the dough to press in the sugar. With a pointed knife, cut into 2-inch squares. Place the squares on the hot baking sheets lined with greaseproof paper and bake 1 sheet at a time for 8-10 minutes only, until the biscuits are puffed up and golden.
