Ingredients

4 Servings
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 sheets matzo
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Directions

Step 1
Break the matzo into small pieces and place them in a bowl. Cover with warm water and let soak for about 1-2 minutes until softened. Drain and squeeze out excess water.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and salt until well combined.
Step 3
Add the soaked matzo to the egg mixture and stir until the matzo is well coated.
Step 4
Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted.
Step 5
Pour the matzo and egg mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are set and the matzo is lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 6
Serve hot, optionally with a side of applesauce or sour cream.
