Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package directions, until al dente (about 6-8 minutes). Drain thoroughly in a colander. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In the same pot, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and add the drained noodles, cottage cheese, salt, and applesauce. Stir gently to combine. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon. Add this mixture to the noodle mixture. Gently fold in the beaten eggs until well combined. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Pour the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly. (2 minutes)

06

Step
1 hrs

Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown and the kugel is set, about 55-60 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. (60 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter.
Add a handful of raisins or dried cranberries for a touch of sweetness and chewiness.
A sprinkle of crushed cornflakes on top before baking adds a delightful crunch.
Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. You can also substitute honey or maple syrup for a more complex sweetness.
Kugel is best served warm or at room temperature. It can also be refrigerated and reheated gently.
Try using different types of noodles, such as rotini or penne, for a fun twist.
If you don't have applesauce, you can use mashed bananas or pumpkin puree.
