Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil over high heat.

Add a 16 oz package of egg noodles to the boiling water.

Cook the noodles, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes.

Drain the noodles well in a colander and transfer them into a large bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of margarine to the noodles.

Add 4 lightly beaten eggs to the bowl.

Add 1 cup of sugar to the mixture.

Add 1 1/2 cups of applesauce to the bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture.

Add about 1/2 cup of raisins for extra fruity flavor.

Stir all the ingredients together until well combined.

Transfer the noodle mixture into a 9 by 13-inch baking pan, spreading it out evenly.

Sprinkle the top of the kugel with cinnamon to taste.

Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Uncover the kugel and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes until golden brown.
