What Makes This Special

These kichel—crisp, airy Jewish biscuits—are a beloved treat with deep roots in Ashkenazi cuisine. This master-level recipe draws on classic technique but brings autumnal comfort to the fore by weaving in caramelized maple syrup (instead of the more common white sugar) and folding in a homemade hazelnut praline for a golden, nutty crunch. The result: shatteringly crisp layers, rich caramel flavors, and a gorgeous golden hue—perfect with tea or as a make-ahead treat for festive gatherings.
