you can. it will be similar to the classic sweet noodle kugel. ENJOY
Can in make this without the dried fruit ?
The topping will not be crunchy if you freeze it. Best to leave the topping off and add it when reheating.
sounds delicious.. can i freeze it?
slightly smaller but deeper — so equivalent capacity — plus I like this casserole dish, don’t you?
lol!
yes would be awesome! I happen to love prunes.
Do you think it would work to also use prunes?
I brought it to a friend’s meal once, and now whenever I go back, she requests it. She calls it Kugel Krack.
