Gourmet Noodle Kugel (Base Recipe & Exotic Add Ins) image

Here is a lower-fat kugel recipe that takes this rather boring traditional dish to an entirely new level (and into the new millennium!) I've been told they have a cheesecake-esque quality to them. Don't snub the Chocolate ones they are a hit every time! Let go of Jewish guilt & Be creative... think outside the Kugel box!!

2 -3 apples, cored peeled and sliced
2 teaspoons apple pie spice
1/2 cup chopped pecans

1 (16 ounce) can drained pineapple (chunks or tidbits)
1 cup spiced rum, I like to soak the noodles in Rum an hour or 2 tablespoons coconut flavoring
top with shredded coconut (optional)
1 cup amaretto liqueur, soak the noodles in Amaretto an hour or 1 cup top with sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Blend all base recipe ingredients till smooth then fold in noodles and your 'exotic' variations!
