Keywords: Breakfast, Cheese, European, Kosher, < 60 Mins, Oven
Ingredients:
- 5 tablespoons butter, for greasing the pan
- 2 1/2 matzos, lightly wet with water
- 1 cup tomato sauce with mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup American cheese, sliced
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Pan: Begin by lightly buttering a 9 x 13 inch baking pan, ensuring that the entire surface is coated to prevent sticking.
-
Prepare the Matzos: Lightly moisten the matzos with a bit of water to make them more pliable. Be careful not to soak them; they should just be dampened slightly.
-
Layer the Matzos: Arrange 2 1/2 matzos on the bottom of the prepared baking pan, covering the base completely.
-
Add Tomato Sauce and Cheese: Spread half of the tomato sauce evenly over the matzos. Arrange slices of American cheese over the sauce, covering it thoroughly.
-
Add Another Layer: Place the remaining matzos over the cheese layer. Pour the remaining tomato sauce over this top layer of matzos.
-
Season: Sprinkle the top generously with onion powder and garlic powder to enhance the flavor profile.
-
Prepare the Custard: In a bowl, beat together the eggs and milk until well combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the layered matzos and cheese.
-
Bake: Place the pan in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C). Bake for 30 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
-
Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza soufflé to rest for about 10 minutes after baking. This resting period will help it set further and make it easier to cut into serving portions.
