Kugels hold a special place in our family's Jewish traditions, passed down through generations. This recipe, inspired by my great aunt Inge and a hint of my Bubbe's touch, creates a blend of sweet noodles in a creamy custard baked together for a cozy dish. For the uninitiated, think of kugels as a comforting casserole with a sweet twist. This version, featuring applesauce and raisins, brings comfort in every bite. What's awesome is that making it gluten free was a breeze - just swap traditional noodles with thin, gluten free rice noodles, and you've got a gluten free version that tastes equally delicious. I hope this family favorite brings warmth to your table, just like it does for us!

  1. Cook the noodles until tender, then drain and rinse.
  2. Blend together the eggs, salt, cinnamon, vanilla extract, melted butter, and sugar.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the applesauce with the blended mix along with the raisins.
  4. Grease your baking dish and add the cooked, drained, and rinsed noodles.
  5. Pour the mixture over the noodles.
  6. Bake at 325°F for the first 45 minutes, then increase the temperature to 375°F for another 15-20 minutes until fully baked with a lightly golden, crispy top.

Notes

After cooking the rice noodles, rinse them with cold water to prevent clumping. Grease the baking dish to avoid sticking. Spread the noodles evenly in the dish, ensuring they're well-separated. Pour the custard mix uniformly over the noodles, distributing it thoroughly along with the raisins. Achieving a slightly crispy, golden top adds a delightful touch. If aiming for a dairy-free version, substitute standard butter with a dairy-free alternative for an equally delicious outcome!
