Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9-inch-square baking dish with spray oil.

Break matzoh into bite-size pieces and place in a separate bowl with remaining apple juice; let soak just until softened, about 5 minutes. 


Drain matzoh and discard remaining juice.


In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt together until blended. 


Fold in apricots and drained, softened matzoh. 


Layer 1/3 of the apples and juices in the prepared baking dish. 


Add 1/2 of the egg mixture. 


Repeat with remaining apples and egg mixture; ending with a thin layer of apples on top.


Bake until apples are golden brown on top and tender throughout, about 50 minutes. 


Let cool slightly before serving or cool completely.
