Recipe: Weight Watchers Fruited Passover Kugels

FRUITED PASSOVER KUGELS

1/4 cup margarine, divided use
4 matzo boards, broken into small pieces
1 cup water
2 tbsp plus 2 tsp light brown sugar, packed
4 eggs; separated
4 small apples; cored, pared, and coarsely shredded
8 large pitted prunes; diced
2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
dash salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease eight (6 ounce) custard cups with 1/4 teaspoon margarine each; set aside.

In small bowl combine matzo and water; set aside.

In large mixing bowl, using electric mixer, beat remaining 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon margarine with brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks and continue beating until mixture is well combined. Add fruits, lemon juice, cinnamon, and matzo mixture and stir to combine; set aside.

In separate bowl, using clean beaters, beat egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form; gently fold whites into batter. Spoon 1/8 of batter into each prepared custard cups.

Bake until lightly browned, about 35 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes; using spatula loosen kugels from cups, transfer to wire rack, and let cool completely.
