Charles Ellicott Commentary Leviticus 2:6

"Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it is a meal-offering." — Leviticus 2:6 (ASV)

Thou shalt part it in pieces. —The cake thus baked was not to be offered as a whole, but broken up in pieces and mingled with oil. Bread, broken in pieces and steeped in oil, butter, milk, or sweet juices, still constitutes a favourite dish among the Bedouin Arabs.
