Archives: Carrot Kugel

With Passover underway, I’ve gotten into serious cooking mode – well, I just get excited when cooking/baking for friends/family. Hint, hint…. Who wants to come over to my house for dinner?!

I made carrot “kugel” gluten free style – SO YUMMY

I found the recipe on Elana’s Pantry and adapted it to my liking – I figured this recipe would be delicious! So I got to cooking – it turned out wonderful. Unfortunately I didn’t make enough for everyone 🙁 but I knew that my grandmother was also making carrot kugel – although her version was filled with ingredients that I knew I wouldn’t be too fond of, so I brought my own!

It was a hit! – Thank you Elana!

We had 25 people at our seder and this went pretty fast – so just  be mindful of that when you decide how many carrots to use.

Here’s the recipe:

5-6 cups chopped carrots (approximately 2lbs)

¼ cup agave nectar

½ teaspoon nutmeg

½ teaspoon cinnamon

4 egg whites

¼ cup blanched almond flour

1. Cook carrots in a steamer until soft, about 20 minutes

2. Blend carrots, agave, cinnamon, eggs and almond flour until smooth

3. Place mixture in a greased 8″ square glass baking pan

4. Bake at 350° for 1 hour, until browned around the edges and done in the center

5. Serve warm out of the oven, or allow to cool, then refrigerate overnight and serve cold
