About

Kugel is a traditional Jewish dish, often served as a side dish, a main course, or even sometimes as a dessert. Cinnamon Apple Kugel blurs the lines between these categories, with its bed of tender yet crispy noodles on the top and warming, jammy cinnamon apple flavor. It's sweet and balanced and just welcoming, the kind of dish that could warm your soul after a long winter day. Cinnamon Apple Kugel is refreshing and traditional all at the same time, and it's more than worth digging your fork into!
