Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Matzoh crackers
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Fat-free milk
- 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sugar or sweetener (optional)
- 0.5 cup Fresh fruit (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Break the matzoh into small pieces (around 1 to 2-inch pieces) and place them in a medium-sized bowl.
Pour hot water over the matzoh pieces just enough to cover them. Let them soak for about 30 seconds, then drain the water using a strainer or your hands, gently pressing out excess liquid.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, fat-free milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Add the softened and drained matzoh to the egg mixture, stirring gently to coat all the pieces evenly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the teaspoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
Pour the matzoh and egg mixture into the skillet and cook, gently stirring and flattening with a spatula, until the eggs are set and the matzoh is lightly golden, about 3 to 4 minutes.
If desired, sprinkle sugar or sweetener over the top and stir lightly for a sweet variation.
Serve immediately, optionally garnishing with fresh fruit for added color and flavor.
