Parve Lukshen Kugel

From the kitchen of Sue Meyerowitz

16 oz. broad egg noodles

1 stick parve margarine (1/4 lb.)

2/3 cup dark brown sugar

4 jumbo or 5 large eggs

1/4 tsp. nutmeg

3/4 tsp. cinnamon

5 med. apples (or 4 lg.) peeled, sliced thin

1 cup raisins

Serves 10

Boil noodles as directed on package. Rinse and cool.  Melt 1/2 to 3/4 of the margarine and mix into cooled noodles. Mix in the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, eggs, raisins and apples. Stir. Melt remaining margarine in a large lasagna pan (about 13 x 9), and grease all around the pan with it. Then pour the noodle mixture in and sprinkle the top with cinnamon. Bake at 350° degrees for 50-60 minutes.  (If it is browning too fast, lower heat a little, no lower than 325.)

 

Honey Cake

From the kitchen of Deborah Katchko-Gray of Ridgefield

1 cup hot coffee

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup honey

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup canola oil

3 eggs

3 cups flour – 2 white/1 whole wheat “white”

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger,

1 tsp nutmeg

1-2 apples peeled and chopped up

Handful of yellow raisins, walnuts, almonds if you like

Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 9×13 pan. Mix wet liquids first, then dry all together in one bowl; apples, raisins, and nuts are last. Bake about 45 minutes until brown. I like to double the recipe and share with neighbors or freeze one for Sukkot!
