I love making pizza’s out of just about anything, my daughter will eat just about anything if I top it with sauce and cheese (yup, even zucchini pizza). A while back I posted a recipe for my favorite quick Lavash Pizza and someone commented how they do the same with Matzo so when I got requests for Passover recipes, this was the first thing that came to mind.

I personally love red onions and olives on my pizza, but you could slices of bell pepper, baby spinach, mushrooms… you name it! For my daughter I kept it basic, sauce and cheese and she loved it!

    Thank you for this recipe! I modified by adding roasted peppers, artichoke hearts, and vegan pepperoni, and then I used Miyoko’s new pourable mozzarella…careful, pour it onta a spoon and drizzzle it on.
    SPECTACULAR!!!

  3. Looks like a great way to eat matzo! Found it on pinterest. Got a question for you… I'd just read post about pinning responsibly so this is fresh. I wondered if the pin I saw this on is what they were referring to since he had the full recipe in the pin. Here's the link… http://www.pinterest.com/pin/144607838005369307/. Just thought you'd want to know. If this is legit, just delete this. Thanks!

  4. The rules for keeping kosher are very complex and go way beyond not mixing meat and dairy. At passover time those rules are even more stringent.

    Erica – what brand of reduced fat k-p cheese do you buy please?

  5. Instead of matzo I used rice cakes, placed a slice of reduced fat provolone cheese on top of the rice cake for stabillity, then tomato sauce with a garlic sprinkle and then toppings in the oven at 400 for 10 mins. The sauce will just go thru the rice cake that's why i used the provolone turned out great

  6. One quick question about this recipe – what does it mean to put a rack on the baking sheet? Not sure if I'm reading that right.

    Love the site and the recipes btw!

      If you have a rack instead of putting it directly on the baking sheet it will be crispier, but if not, no worries.

  7. This looks fantastic! I've been really into pita pizzas lately and just blogged about mine last week. I can't wait to try motzo pizza now!

  8. made this last night with goat cheese and thinly sliced baby heirloom tomatoes then drizzled a mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and fresh chopped garlic after it was baked. the cheese soaked up the oil-vinegar mixture so the cracker was still a super crispy crust!

    Look tasty! I am unsure what a matzo cracker is. I'll have to ggole it! My husband and step-daughter would love this recipe!!

  11. Thank you so much for this recipe! More, please 🙂 I have never baked matza pizza in the oven – only used the microwave, which makes it sort of soggy. I appreciate you taking the guess work out of what temperature and for how long to bake. I will probably use whole wheat or onion matza.

    No, of course Sargento brand cheese is not strictly Kosher for Pesach. But there are other brands of cheese available for purchase that are, so simply substitute with one of those. I don't think it's realistic to expect a strictly Kosher recipe from this site, or from any site that is not tailored to a specific community.

    1. Of course not, however one would think a mention of this wouldn't be offensive and perhaps educational. Those looking for passover recipes that are strictly kosher would be looking elsewhere. No ill will intended, only a desire to share knowledge.

  12. great idea! however, for those strictly observing the holiday, the cheese most likely is not kosher for passover

    1. Gina, That is one part when you keep Kosher…When you keep Kosher for Passover, all foods need to be marked Kosher for Passover on the label.

    2. The rules for keeping kosher are very complex and go way beyond not mixing meat and dairy. At passover time those rules are even more stringent.

    I love to eat pizzas and skinny passover matzo pizza is on the top my favorite list. The making procedure of this pizza is very easy and that's why I love to make it and eat it as well. Thanks

  14. thanks so much for including this passover food idea. It gets so boring trying to think of new and creative ways to get through the holiday. If there were more recipes for passover it would be appreciated so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. Get out of here! I've been so nervous for passover coming up and how I'm going to stay within my points and you post a Passover recipe! You are wonderful!! What do you think about skinny macaroons? 🙂

    Love this idea – a crispy, thin crust is essential for the perfect pizza (in my opinion)!
