Introduction

Traditional lukschen kugel made lighter with low-fat dairy products. You can make it lighter with reduced fat cream cheese, or use Neufchatel instead of cream cheese. I didn't have that option available. And apples are added, making this perfect for Rosh Hashana! Traditional lukschen kugel made lighter with low-fat dairy products.

Ingredients

    4 Eggs
    1 lb Egg Noodles, enriched
    1 cup Milk, nonfat
    1 cup Yogurt, plain, low fat
    1 cup Cottage cheese, 2% milkfat
    1 8 oz box Cream Cheese
    1 cup Granulated Sugar
    1.5 chopped Apples (peeled and cored first)
    1/4 stick Butter, unsalted - divided into two parts
    Ground cinnamon

Directions

Makes 21 servings (approx. 3 x 2 inch squares - just cut into three columns by 7 rows, and you have 21 pieces)

Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water to cool.

Use half of the butter to coat the baking pan (9 x 12 nonstick pan, but still needs the little bit of butter). Using an electric mixer, mix the eggs, milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, cream cheese until smooth and creamy in texture. Add the sugar, mix some more. Stir in the chopped apples. Mix in the cooled noodles.

Pour into the buttered baking pan. Sprinkle cinnamon on top. Dot with butter. (Just tiny bits, but it makes it brown better.)

Bake at 350 F for 90 minutes.

Delicious hot, cold, or room temp. Freezes well for reheating later. Makes a LOT so it's great for company, potlucks, or picnics. I love this for a brunch party dish.
