Many kugels are made with noodles and we loved the matzo in this recipe. When baked, the matzo and egg have almost a bread pudding texture. The flavor is amazing. It's overloaded with apples and cinnamon. Orange zest adds a nice, fresh flavor. This is classified as a side dish, but could really be a dessert.

Steps:
- 1. Break matzohs coarsely. Soak them in water just until soft (about 1 minute). Squeeze out excess water. (DO NOT OVER SOAK!)
- 2. In a very large bowl, stir together the matzos and the eggs, sugar, salt, cinnamon, raisins, apples, orange zest, and almonds.
- 3. Place in well-greased (or sprayed with Pam) baking pan or casserole dish. Sprinkle top with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Note: The orange rind is a must! Add extra for even more flavor.
- 4. Drizzle butter or margarine over the top if desired.
- 5. Bake at 350 until firm and browned (about 45 minutes).
- 6. Note: This freezes well. I use the large slits of a hand grater, but you can use a food processor for speedier prep time.
