Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 sheets Matzo
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Cottage cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the tablespoon of butter and set aside.
Break the matzo sheets into small pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the milk over the matzo and let it soak for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the matzo is evenly moistened.
In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and beat them until smooth.
Add the beaten eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, salt, and black pepper to the soaked matzo. Mix well until fully combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the puff is set in the center.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Slice into portions and enjoy!
