- Mix the eggs with the sugar, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and pour in the fats — the butter and ghee — then mix well. Add the warm milk, and gradually work in the flour and yeast; you'll use roughly 700–850 grams (about 6 cups) of flour. Let the dough rise three times. Cut off a third of the dough and roll it out to the width of your baking sheet. Let it rest for 10–15 minutes, then prick the whole base all over with a fork so it bakes evenly and doesn't bubble up. With small sheet pans you'll get 3 pies; if your pans are large, divide the dough in two for two rivelkuchen. Spread the base with a generous layer of fruit jam and dot the Rivels evenly all over the pie. To make the Rivels (the crumb topping), stir sugar into the melted ghee, then gradually add flour until you have a firm, dough-like mass — like modeling clay, not crumbly. Pinch off little lumps and roll them into Rivel balls, as big as you like. If you've never made them before, experiment! Bake the kuchen for about 20–25 minutes, until done, at 350°F (180°C).
