THBubby’s Mandel Bread
Bubby’s family has been making this mandel bread recipe for generations and a few years ago we realized that with a 1 for 1 gluten free flour they turn out perfect, maybe even better than the original.
While I’ve been visiting home, I was able to convince her to film the recipe with me (mostly because I just wanted to eat them after.)
Ingredients:
4 eggs
4.5 cups קמח כרגיל or gluten free all purpose baking flour - it also works with regular flour or almond flour
1 cup oil
1.5 cups sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
1.5 tbsp baking powder
Juice of half a lemon
Chocolate chips walnuts, almonds, or whatever addition you would like
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine 4.5 cups flour and 1.5 tbsp baking powder.
In a stand mixer, beat the eggs and add in the oil, sugar, vanilla, almond extract, and lemon juice.
Next, slowly incorporate the flour and baking powder until combined.
Pour in as many chocolate chips, walnuts, almonds, or other add ins as your heart desires.
Wet your hands well and take 1/3 of the dough and place it in a log shape on the baking sheet. Repeat twice more leaving space in between the three logs.
Put them in for their first bake on 350 F for 20-23 minutes.
Take the pan out of the oven and let cool a few minutes. Once slightly cool, slice the logs into small strips and place in lines with one of the flat sides down on the baking sheet.
Bake again for 7-10 minutes or until golden and crunchy.
***Best served with tea or coffee.
