Amazing Passover Breakfast Matzah Brie with Apples and Rasins

Passover Breakfast Skillet Matzo Brei with Cinnamon, Apple, and Raisins


An unleavened take on French toast, matzo brei is sometimes savory, but arguably at its best sweet. This indulgent version has an appeal that extends beyond its Passover origins with a choice of finishing touches: honey, preserves, creme fraiche, or maple syrup. This recipe comes from Gita Edelsburg, the mother-in-law of Monita Buchwald, recipe tester at Martha Stewart Living.
Martha Stewart Living, April 2008
Yield 4

Ingredients
5 matzos, broken into 2-inch pieces
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and diced
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Fruit preserves, creme fraiche, honey, or maple syrup, for serving (optional)

Directions
1. Place matzos in a bowl, and cover with water. Place a plate on surface to keep matzos submerged. Let stand for 5 minutes, and drain. Return to bowl.
2. Whisk eggs and salt together in a small bowl. Add to matzo. Add sugar, apple, raisins, cinnamon, and 1/2 cup oil. Gently stir until combined.
3. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread matzo mixture evenly in skillet, pressing firmly into pan. Cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Carefully flip with a spatula, 1 piece at a time. (The mixture will break into 3 or 4 pieces.) Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Spoon onto serving plates. Serve hot or warm with toppings if desired.

Yes, I made it yesterday and it was outstanding. I would eat it even if it was not passover. ETA: I even wrote on FB to MSL thanking them for the recipe and that I loved it.
