Ingredients

    3 sheets matzoh
    3 whole eggs
    3 egg whites
    1/2 c 1% milk
    1 tbsp sugar
    2 tsp cinnamon
    pinch of salt
    1 tbsp butter

Tips

If you have a good nonstick pan, you can use much less butter. Another way to cut down the calories is to use skim milk or all egg whites. Traditionally served with sour cream (low fat or nonfat if you like) and cinnamon sugar as a topping.


Directions

Place a colander in the sink. Break 3 matzohs into smaller pieces in the colander and rinse with warm water then leave to drain while you prep the eggs. In a medium bowl add 3 eggs with yolks and 3 egg whites, milk, cinnamon, sugar and salt. Beat together. Add matzoh from colander and stir to combine.

Melt butter in a pan over medium heat (if you have a good nonstick pan, less butter is required.) Put matzoh and egg mixture in pan, and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes before stirring. Periodically stir the mixture to ensure even cooking, but keep the temperature at medium-low. This will take 10-12 minutes of cooking time, depending on how dry you like your eggs. I consider it done when some of the matzoh is a bit crispy on the edges, but most of it is still soft.
