Noodle Kugel Recipe
- 1 cup low carb pasta – rotini
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup Splenda®
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom, ground
- 2 teaspoons blackstrap molasses (optional)
- Boil the noodles according to the directions on the packet except reduce the time by about 2 minutes. Low carb noodles are awful when they are overcooked and you'll be baking the kugel so you want the noodles still firm.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Beat the egg thoroughly. Add the Splenda and stir. Then add the ricotta, sour cream, cream cheese, cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla extract and molasses and blend well until very creamy.
- Gently fold the noodles into the mixture. Pour into a greased 8×8 casserole dish.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for about 35 minutes. Serve warm.
