Is there a problem with egg matzah?
Egg matzah requires a Kosher Le’Pesach hashgacha and unfortunately will not fulfill the mitzvah of matzah. Matzah must be lechem oni, poor man’s bread. Egg matzah is considered to be matzah ashirah, rich man’s bread. This is because it contains ingredients other than flour and water. If you are able to eat another kind of matzah (wheat, spelt, or even oat) that is just flour and water, even just a kazayit at the seder, you will be able to fulfill the mitzvah. We generally only suggest people eat egg matzah on Pesach if they are ill or infirm. The bracha for egg matzah when it is a snack is mezonot and when it is a meal, motzi. MATN
