This is a recipe handed down from my Italian grandmother. Go figure...it's a Jewish Passover dish! Serve warm with cinnamon sugar or syrup, honey, or even powdered sugar. Double recipe to serve a bigger family.

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 matzo sheets
1 cup milk, or more as needed
2 eggs
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, or to taste

Steps:

  • Pass each matzo sheet under cool running water briefly, then crumble into a large bowl. Stir in 1 cup milk, eggs, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla extract to form evenly moistened batter. Add more milk if batter is too dry.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my matzo brei turned out burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The matzo brei was a little dry. I think I would add more milk or eggs next time.

This recipe is too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm on a low-carb diet. Can I use a different type of bread instead of matzo?

I'm allergic to apples. Can I substitute another fruit, like bananas or blueberries?

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can use different types of fruit, nuts, and spices to create your own unique variation. I've even added crumbled bacon or sausage to it for a savory twist.
