Matzo Apple Kugel Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• 2. Toss the apples with the brown sugar and orange juice, set aside in a medium bowl.
• 3. Break the matzoh into 2- to 3-inch pieces and soak in 1 cup of warm water until soft but not mushy. Set aside.
• 4. While the matzoh soaks, beat the eggs with a wire whisk in a large bowl until blended. Add the salt, sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, raisins, and apricots.
• 5. Squeeze the liquid from the softened matzoh and add the matzoh to the egg mixture with the apples. Stir the kugel well and pour into a lightly greased 2 1/2-quart casserole dish or a 10x14-inch pan. Dot the top of the kugel with the 4 tablespoons of butter.
• 6. Bake the kugel for 1 hour. Cover the top with foil if the top begins to become too brown early in the baking. Remove the kugel from the oven and cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and saute apple slices on high heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and lightly browned. Remove to a large bowl with a slotted spoon. Add 2 teaspoons butter to the skillet, lower heat to medium, and quickly saute raisins and almonds, stirring constantly. Be careful not to burn them. Add to bowl with apples, and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place matzo squares in another large bowl, and run cool water over them to soften. Crumble the matzo, and drain in a colander. Return drained matzo to bowl.
• Combine eggs with matzo and stir well. In another bowl, mix sour cream and cream cheese thoroughly. Then add it to the matzo mixture, along with sugar, cinnamon, salt, and fruit-nut mixture. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
• Grease a 10-inch square Pyrex baking pan (or similar) with butter (use quite a bit), pour mixture into pan, and bake for 50 minutes or until top is a light golden brown. Let cool on counter. Loosen sides with a knife, place a large platter over the baking pan, and carefully turn the kugel out onto the platter. If any pieces stick in the pan, just put them in place. When cooled, sprinkle top with confectioners' sugar (best done through a sieve or sifter). YOu can serve this kugel warm (not hot) or at room temperature, but we like it best chilled in the refrigerator with the confectioners' sugar added just prior to serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350degF.
• Lightly grease a 1qt baking dish with butter/spread.
• Combine farfel with 2 eggs. Place in heavy skillet and toast over low heat, stirring all the time, until farfel is golden brown and the pieces are separate.
• Beat the 2 egg whites with the sugar, salt, and 3 tbsp butter. Add the farfel and 1/2 cup of water.
• Line the bottom of the prepared baking dish with half of the apple slices and sprinkle with lemon juice.
• Add the matzo farfel mixture.
• Top with remaining apple slices, sprinkle with nuts, and pour on the remaining butter.
• Bake for 30min.

Steps:

• Break matzohs in pieces, soak in water and drain.
• Combine eggs, salt, honey, oil, cinnamon and add to matzoh.
• Mix in nuts, apples and raisins.
• Place in 8- inch square baking dish and bake at 350°F degrees for 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the crumbled matzos in a medium bowl, and add enough water to cover. Let stand for 2 minutes, then drain off excess water. Don't squeeze.
• To the bowl of matzo, add eggs, 1/4 cup sugar, salt, lemon juice and applesauce. Stir to combine. Mix in the apples and dried cranberries. Spread the mixture evenly into a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Mix together the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar, and cinnamon; sprinkle over the top.
• Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden, and the apples are soft.
