Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups matzoh meal
  • 5 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350-375 degrees Fahrenheit (depending on how soft you like them – I prefer 350). Grease cookie sheets and set aside.

2. In a large saucepan, bring the water and oil to a boil. Once boiling, remove the liquid from the heat and add matzoh meal, sugar and salt.

3. Beat the eggs and then them to the matzoh mixture.

4. When the mixture is cool enough to handle, make the batter into 3 inch pancakes and place on the cookie sheets, about 1-2 inches apart. Using your thumb, make imprints in the center of the pancakes (like big thumbprint cookies).

5. Bake 40-45 minutes or until the bottoms are light brown.

Matzoh Bagels are best eaten right out of the oven when they are so hot they burn your tongue but you don’t care because you love them within a day or two of making them, as they will dry out. After that, they are delicious toasted with a little butter (because that’s just what they need… more calories) or jelly.
