Looking for Passover recipes appropriate for SCD

[Guest guest]

In particular, I am hoping that somebody can direct me to a recipe for

" matzo balls " made with almond flour.

Also, when making recipes that would normally include matzo meal, such as a

spinach, carrot, onion, egg pie, what is the general rule of equivalents for

substituting almond flour for matzo meal?

My calendar says that I have only a few weeks to figure this out.

Thanks.

Hi Ellen,

This is the only place I know of which may be of some help.

Here is a GF matzo recipe. I would assume that almond and matzo meal were equal

in

measurement. You could always do a trial run! :-) I haven't tried this, just as

a note.

Gluten-Free Matza Balls:

Ingredients:

2 Eggs

2 Tablespoons Canola Oil

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

2 Tablespoons Club Soda

1/2 Cup Gluten-Free Oat Matza Meal

Directions:

Beat eggs with a whisk until lemon colored. Add oil, salt, and club soda. Beat

well. Mix in

Matza Meal (do not over mix). Let stand at room temperature for a few minutes

(some

people put in the freezer for a few minutes, some people put in the refrigerator

for a few

minutes. This person found that leaving the mix stand at room temperature worked

best.

You can experiment for yourself and see what works best for you).

Roll dough into small 1/2 inch balls.

Fill pot halfway with water, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and drop balls

into the

water. Cover and let simmer for 45 to 60 minutes. Matza Balls are finished when

they are

white and fluffy in the center. If yellow, cook 10 minutes more. (Some people

freeze

matza balls until time to heat).

Heat soup or broth. Add cooked Matza Balls.

Enjoy!!

I have a yummy nut-free Chorset recipe if you're interested. It's from the

Spring 2007

issue of Living Without. Far better than the nut recipe we used to us. Let me

know.
