I make this for my husband. I also add chopped walnuts and craisins. This is his favorite. (For Rosh Hashanah I will leave out walnuts). Easy to make and very freezable. Thanks and Shana Tova.

Hi Rivki Kleiman, My favorite recipe for at least 10 years! FYI isn’t this Brynie Greisman’s recipe down to every detail originally in Mishpacha?

Hi Esther! I’m passing along this message from Rivky:
“I’m so glad this is one of your favorite recipes!  
I am the columnist that submitted this recipe to Mishpacha’s Family Table many years ago.  ( It originates from a recipe that I got from my mother and have been making it for over 35 years) I hope you continue to enjoy it for many more years.”

I think you can do whichever you prefer, I personally would do smaller holes so they wouldn’t be as noticeable but it’s up to you!

Muffins? Can I make this into muffins? How long would they need?

I don’t see why not, but I’ve never tried it so I don’t know how long it would need. I would start with 7 minutes and move up with 2-3 minute increments until they are done.

do you think i can substitute the flour for potato starch and make it for pesach or too risky?

Absolutely delicious and easy to throw together. Like other reviewers I also cut back on the sugar to 2/3 cup and it was perfect.

I made this several times and it was great every time! I used whole wheat flour. I didn’t find it overly sweet, it tasted like a regular carrot kugel. It’s very easy to make. Five stars.

Good but WAY too sweet The flavor and texture were god except that it was a bit too much like eating sugar. I had already cut it down by about 1/5, I’ll try again with only 2/3 cup.

Delicious! We really like this. My husband, who doesn’t always remember which recipe I’m referring to, remembers this one. So delicious! I cut down on the sugar and use whole wheat flour.

Great recipe! We love this recipe! So easy to throw together and always delicious. We’ve made it in a loaf pan, round pan and muffins and it always comes out great. Perfect as a sweet side for a shabbos meal.
