There’s nothing worse than soggy matzah pizza. Follow this easy, adaptable recipe to ensure yours stays crisp and delicious. 

  • Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • matzah squares
  • marinara sauce
  • low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella (not fresh!), grated
  • toppings of choice
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. (You can also cook this under the broiler.)
  2. Assemble your matzah pizza: On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place your matzah square(s). Top each square with a few Tbsp marinara sauce, mozzarella and other toppings of choice. Season well.
  3. Bake for 3-5 minutes, or place under the broiler until the cheese is melted, and the edges are just beginning to crisp.

Notes

  • Baking at a high temperature for a short time will ensure your matzah pizza stays crisp.
  • Don’t use fresh mozzarella cheese, which is delicious, but has a lot of water. Instead, choose a low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella, which will melt easily without adding any additional moisture or sogginess into the pizza.
