Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb egg noodles
  • 1/4 cup melted butter + more to butter the pan
  • 4 cups milk
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup pureed pumpkin
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Bread crumbs

Directions

  1. Pumpkin-Noodle Kugel: Cook a half-pound of egg noodles in salted water until not quite done; drain and put them into a buttered baking dish. Whisk together 4 cups milk, 4 eggs, 1 cup puréed cooked pumpkin (canned is fine), 1/4 cup melted butter and a pinch each of cinnamon and salt. Pour over the noodles and sprinkle with bread crumbs (or, for added kitsch, corn flake crumbs). Bake 45 minutes to an hour, or until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
