Ingredients
  • 4 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup (plus more as needed) warm water
  • oil for brushing
  • salt and seasonings, as desired
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 500 F. Place an inverted baking tray on the center rack.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together 4 1/2 cups flour and 3/4 cup water until a smooth dough forms. Add water by the tablespoon if the dough is too dry.
  3. Break off pieces of dough and roll out until very thin. Poke all over with a fork. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with desired seasoning.
  4. Carefully place dough on top of the preheated baking sheet. Bake for 2 1/2 minutes. Using tongs, flip matzo and bake for another 2 minutes. Remove from oven and repeat with remaining dough. Enjoy!
