Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoon butter divided 1 Tbl. for greasing pan, can substitute cooking spray
  • 6 matzoh boards
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 cup milk low-fat may be substituted
  • 1 pound cottage cheese low-fat may be substituted but not fat-free
  • 1 teaspoon salt optional
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar optional for topping

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350F. Grease a 2 quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Crumble matzohs into small pieces directly into the baking dish. Place remaining butter in microwave-safe bowl. Microcook for 1 minute or until melted. Set everything aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, using a wire wisk, beat eggs with milk. Add cottage cheese, salt, sugar, cinnamon and melted butter. Pour mixture evenly over matzoh pieces (no need to stir). Use a spatula if necessary to make sure the matzoh is completely covered.
  • Bake uncovered for 30 minutes, then cover and continue to bake for 10 more minutes, or until the top is set.
  • Serve, sprinkled with sugar if desired.
