Easy Matzah Recipe

Hi!!
My name is Sunshine. I'm a new poster here.
This week we are celebrating Pesach. Last Friday (Pesach night) we shared our lamb, matzah ball soup, charoset, and bitter herbs with another family. The Mom of the other family brought over some really delicious homemade matzah and gave us the recipe! This is a REALLY EASY recipe to make.

Matzah (any flavor)
Bake:9 min. Oven: 425 F Prep:10 min.


  • 4 c soft white wheat flour or spelt (we used both)

  • 1 tsp salt (and some extra)

  • 3/4 c olive oil

  • 3/4 c cold water

  • 1 1/2 - 2 c raisins or other additions (optional)

Mix all ingredients together. With a rolling pin roll out dough about 1/8" thick. Trim edges with pizza cutter so it cooks evenly. Sprinkle with kosher salt, and gently roll over with rolling pin to press the salt on. Pierce with a fork. Cut into 4 squares. Roll the dough up to transfer to an oiled cookie or baking sheet.

We made a raisin 'n' cinnamon batch. Enjoy!!

Shabbat shalom, Sunshine
