Printable Recipe: Matzah Mac & Cheese
Published April 12, 2022
Ingredients
-
8 squares matzah, or as needed
-
2 cups milk
-
3 large eggs
-
1 tsp salt
-
½ tsp ground pepper, or to taste
-
1 cup sour cream
-
1½-2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
-
1½-2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven 350°F.
-
Grease a 9” x 13” baking dish, ideally ceramic or pyrex.
-
In a large shallow dish, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt, and pepper. Use a dish that is large enough to place whole squares of matzah into.
-
Dip squares of matzah into the egg and milk mixture before placing them in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish. Use about ¼ cup of sour cream and spread it evenly onto the bottom layer of matzah. Top the matzah with a heaping ⅓ cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and a heaping ⅓ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
-
Repeat the process two more times with layers of dipped matzah squares, sour cream, and cheeses.
-
Add one last layer of matzah for a total of 4 layers. Top the matzah with the remaining sour cream and a generous ½ cup of each kind of cheese. Pour the remaining egg and milk mixture over the layers of matzah and cheese. Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.
-
Uncover the dish and bake for 5 minutes uncovered, until bubbly and cheesy. Almost all of the liquid should be absorbed into the matzah at this point. If you like your matzah mac & cheese browned on top, turn the oven to broil, and broil for 1-2 minutes (watch carefully, the top will brown fast).
-
Let the dish rest for 5-10 minutes and then serve.
