Easy & Cheap Side Dish: Corn Kugel

This is one of my all-time favorite recipes because it's so easy--you pretty much just dump everything in a bowl, mix it up, and pop it in the oven.

Now I have to credit my friend BL with the original recipe--I've adapted it a bit just to make it a little healthier, but she certainly deserves the credit for introducing me to this deliciousness :)

Corn Kugel

Ingredients:

1 can creamed corn
3/4 cup applesauce
2 eggs
1 Tbsp oil
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup flour

Directions:

1. Mix creamed corn, applesauce, eggs, oil, sugar, and spices.
2. Whisk in baking soda, baking powder and flour until just combined.
3. Pour into a square (8x8) pan and bake in oven at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until edges are crispy and top is browned and risen.

The cost: cheap (1.29 for the creamed corn, everything else from the pantry)
