This article is about the Mishnaic tractate. For the type of bread, see Challah. For the separation tithe of challah, see Dough offering. For more meanings of the word, see Challa.

Like most of the tractates in Zeraim, it appears only in the Mishnah, and does not appear in the Babylonian Talmud, but rather in the Jerusalem Talmud and Tosefta only.
