Beth El's Pesach Recipes

Matzo Granola

by Joan Klein

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Ingredients:

1 box of Matzo (10.3 oz) or 16 oz. matzo farfel

1/3 cup oil (may need more if mixture is too dry)

¼ tsp vanilla

1/8 tsp salt

1/4 cup water (can be omitted for a crunchier taste).

1/4 cup honey

raisins

almonds

sunflower seeds

apple slices

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Directions:

Break up about a third of a box of matzo and put into food processor

Then grind the matzo until you have very small pieces.  Transfer matzo pieces to a mixing bowl.  Repeat until the entire box of matzo has been ground up.

Add almonds, sunflower seeds, raisins and cut up apples

Combine all liquid ingredients in a measuring cup, stir to mix, then pour over the matzo mixture.

Bake 350º in two Pyrex containers lined with parchment paper or a Silpat.  I use one large  rectangular glass baking pan and one small one. Bake for 15 minutes, then take them out of the oven, stir the mixture, then replace in oven, then bake for another five minutes.

**This is a yummy breakfast cereal substitute during Passover.

Passover Rolls

by Michele Gusdorff

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ingredients:

2 cups matzoh meal        

1 cup water

1 teaspoon salt                   

½ cup oil

2 tablespoons sugar            

 5 eggs

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a large cookie sheet or use parchment paper. Combine matzoh meal, salt and sugar in a bowl, and mix well. Bring oil and water to a boil in a pot. Add to matzoh meal mixture and mix well. Beat in eggs thoroughly, one at a time. Allow to stand 15 minutes. With oiled hands, shape into round sandwich rolls, and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees, about 60 minutes or until golden brown. They will puff up. They will be crisp on the outside, and soft in the inside. Cool completely before storing in a plastic bag, for the next day(they will soften). You will get about 8 rolls (based on how big you make the rolls). Great for tuna, egg salad, lox and cream cheese, whitefish salad, hamburgers etc.
