APPLE-MATZOH KUGEL
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.
Tips:
- For a sweeter kugel, use golden raisins instead of regular raisins.
- If you don't have farfel, you can use matzo meal or bread crumbs.
- To make the kugel more moist, add an extra egg or a quarter cup of milk.
- For a crispy top, sprinkle the kugel with a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon before baking.
- If you want to make the kugel ahead of time, you can bake it up to 24 hours in advance. Just reheat it in a 350°F oven for about 30 minutes before serving.
