CREAMY APPLE NOODLE KUGEL
Since it uses applesauce as well as fresh apples it is very moist, easy and quick preparation, and great apple taste. When I am in a really big hurry, I just double the applesauce and don't bother with the fresh apples.

Steps:
- 1. Put eggs and sour cream into a bowl and mix on medium speed until combined. Mix in 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter and the softened cream cheese. Set aside.
- 2. Heat 2 tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in 2 tbsp. sugar, 1/2 tsp.cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. nutmeg. Add apples; gently toss to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally, until soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
- 3. Stir apples and raisins into egg mixture; pour over noodles. Toss gently to combine. Pour into greased 9 X 13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
- 4. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Granny Smith apples are a good choice for this recipe because they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that complements the sweet noodles and creamy sauce.
- Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will become mushy and lose their texture.
- Use a good quality cream cheese: Full-fat cream cheese will give the kugel a rich and creamy flavor. Low-fat or nonfat cream cheese will not produce the same results.
- Don't skimp on the spices: The spices in this recipe, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, add a warm and flavorful flavor to the kugel. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of spices.
- Let the kugel cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the kugel to set. If you serve the kugel hot, it will be too runny.
Conclusion:
Creamy apple noodle kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its sweet and savory flavors, creamy texture, and beautiful presentation, this kugel is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
