Ingredients

3 sheets matzo (matzoh, matza)
6 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup sultanas (golden raisins)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180℃. Grease a 20 cm square ovenproof dish.
Break the matzo into rough 3 cm square pieces, place in a bowl, cover with water for a minute, then drain and squeeze out any excess water.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, cinnamon and salt until well combined. Fold in the sultanas, apples, and matzo. Pour into the prepared dish and pour the melted butter on top, then sprinkle with the extra sugar and cinnamon.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden brown.

Is there anything that could be used as a Matzo substitute? I don’t live near anywhere that sells this. Thank you.

  Hi Donna, not really. This is a dish specifically created to use Matzo during Passover. Are you looking for a dish that is suitable for Passover? If not, I suggest a delicious bread and butter pudding instead. Cheers, Lisa
