Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place crushed matzo crackers in a medium bowl and add enough water to cover. Let stand for 2 minutes, then drain off excess water. Do not squeeze.
Step 2
Add beaten eggs, applesauce, 1/4 cup sugar, salt, and lemon juice to soaked crackers; stir to combine. Mix in apples and dried cranberries until incorporated. Spread evenly into a 2-quart casserole dish.
Step 3
Mix together remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl until well combined; sprinkle over the top.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden and apples are soft, about 45 minutes.
