- 2 tablespoons marinara or pizza sauce
- 0.333 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons dried oregano
- 0.125 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 leaves fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the matzo cracker on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Brush the top of the matzo lightly with olive oil to help crisp it up while baking.
Spread the marinara or pizza sauce evenly over the matzo, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly across the top of the sauce.
Add a pinch of dried oregano for a touch of Italian flavor. If you like some heat, sprinkle on a small pinch of red pepper flakes.
Bake the matzo pizza in the preheated oven for 5-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the matzo pizza from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired.
Slice or break into pieces and serve immediately. Enjoy your Quick Matzo Pizza!
