Noodle Kugel
Happy Wednesday everyone! Fun Fact for everyone on this date in 2002 was my bat mitzvah! Crazy that it has been 14 years since that day and this year it falls on Yom Kippur. For all those who celebrate this holiday like me today is the day we fast, but at the end of the day we have a big meal. For today’s hump day treat I wanted to share with you one of my favorite recipes that my mom passed down to me which is my grandmother’s noodle kugel recipe. Now everyone has their own take on doing noodle kugel, but I personally don’t like it with cottage cheese or anything else in it. I also love it when the top of the noodles are a little crispy from cooking in the oven.
Ingredients:
2 eggs
4 TBLS of Sugar
1/4 TSP Salt
1/2 TSP Cinnamon
1 cup grated apples
1/2 cup of raisins
4 cups of cooked and drained noodles (Mueller’s Wide Egg Noodles)
5 TBLS Melted Butter
Baking dish (Preferably a pyrex glass one that you would use to make brownies)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
- Cook the egg noodles and drain them. After draining the noodles leave them aside in a mixing bowl
- Beat eggs, sugar,, salt and cinnamon together
- Stir in the apples and then the raisins
- Then take the mix and pour it over the noodles and mix it all together
- Take your baking dish and coat it with butter so it doesn’t stick
- Pour the mix into the pyrex
- Personally I love to add on the top some more cinnamon and a pinch of cinnamon sugar in order to cover the entire top (some of my friends like to add corn flakes for some crunch)
- Place in the oven and cook for 40 minutes or until brown
Hope everyone who celebrates had an easy fast!
