Does anyone have a tried and true Pesachdig carrot kugel recipe? I seem to remember making one a while back that was very good, but I can't find a recipe.

Thanks!

I got this recipe from my sister-in-law, tweaked a bit for year round use (hers was sweeter, believe it or not!) and adapted it for pesach because it is a family favorite.

Year Round Recipe

Simple Carrot Kugel

3 cups grated carrots
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup oil
1 cup flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3 eggs

Mix all ingredients well. Pour into greased 9x13 pan and sprinkle top with cinnamon and sugar. (I leave off the sugar topping and reduce the sugar in the recipe - it's quite sweet!) Bake at 350F/180C for 45-55 minutes.

This kugel serves wonderfully cold, too - and slices best if cooled first.

Pesach Recipe (Gebrokts)

I substitute matzo cake meal (or very fine matzo meal run through the processor to further refine it) in the same quantity. The texture is a tad heavier and not quite as wet but still really good!

Note: I've also found that using ground nuts (almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts) mixed with the cinnamon and sugar gives it a nice crumbly topping and it can even work as a dessert Smile
