Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces wide egg noodles
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 0.75 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, sour cream, cream cheese (softened), and sugar. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the cheese mixture along with the eggs, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Gently fold the cooked noodles into the cheese mixture until evenly coated.
Spread half of the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish. Layer half of the sliced peaches over the noodles.
Add the remaining noodle mixture, followed by the rest of the peaches, arranging them decoratively on top if desired.
In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter to form a crumbly topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the kugel.
Bake the kugel in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Let the kugel cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature. It can also be refrigerated and served chilled.
