Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook 12 oz wide egg noodles for 7 minutes until al dente. Drain well and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 cup sour cream, and 1 cup ricotta cheese until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Pour the egg mixture over the warm noodles, then add 6 tbsp melted unsalted butter and 3/4 cup raisins. Stir gently until all ingredients are combined and the noodles are evenly coated.
  4. Step 4: Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Place the baking dish inside a larger pan and add hot water to come halfway up the sides of the noodle dish.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 1 hour until the kugel is set in the center and the top is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.
