Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Apple Matzo Kugel.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a medium bowl, take your crushed matzo crackers and immerse them in water, allowing them to soak for about 2 minutes.
Step 3
After soaking, drain the excess water without squeezing the crackers, preserving their delicate texture.
Step 4
Next, introduce the beaten eggs, applesauce, 1/4 cup of sugar, salt, and a splash of lemon juice to the softened matzo.
Step 5
Stir the mixture until everything is harmoniously blended.
Step 6
Gently fold in the chopped apples and dried cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 7
Transfer this delightful blend into a greased 2-quart casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 8
In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar with ground cinnamon, then sprinkle this sweet and spicy mixture generously over the top of the kugel.
Step 9
Place the casserole in your preheated oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the top turns a beautiful golden brown and the apples become tender.
Step 10
Enjoy the warm, comforting aroma that fills your kitchen as this delicious kugel bakes to perfection.
