Serves: serves 6
Ingredients
1 pound quinoa pasta, preferably fusilli shaped
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1¼ cup powdered sugar, unsifted
⅔ cup raisins
few splashes Apple liqueur such as Calvados or hot water
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F *convection heat* with rack positioned in center of oven.
Grease a 3-quart casserole baking dish.
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add two generous pinches of kosher salt and the pasta to cook until al dente, about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, soak raisins in apple liqueur (or hot water), when plump, drain and set aside.
When pasta is ready, drain the noodles and put in a medium bowl. Add coconut oil and powdered sugar, combine well. Add applesauce, coconut yogurt, pure vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg and blend well. Add in softened raisins, stir to combine again. Transfer kugel mixture into the greased baking dish. Sprinkle raw turbinado evenly across the kugel. Bake for 30-35 minutes. Let it sit for 30 minutes before slicing, otherwise, it may fall apart.
