How to Make Grandma's Noodle Kugel
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x11 inch glass baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Cook egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
- Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the hot noodles and stir until melted.
- Stir in the light sour cream and light cottage cheese.
- Pour the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy.
- Whisk in the skim milk and sugar until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the noodles in the baking dish.
- If using the oatmeal topping: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add rolled oats and brown sugar; cook, stirring constantly, until the brown sugar dissolves and the oats are lightly browned and fragrant.
- Sprinkle either the crushed cornflakes or the oatmeal topping evenly over the noodle mixture.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the kugel is set. Do not make ahead of baking.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy immediately, or cold the next day!
