Sukkot Recipes

Yields 24 cupcakes.

Who doesn’t love a good cupcake?! These Sukkah cupcakes are easy to make. Use your favorite cake recipe to make cupcakes. My kids love this basic yellow cake recipe. They can make it almost entirely by themselves because most of the ingredients are pre-measured. These cupcakes are the perfect Sukkah project for big and little hands alike.

This warm soothing soup is chock full of vegetables and a great way to break your fast!
 

Yields: 12-15 patties

Gone are the days of boiling, shaping and jarring home made gefilte fish. Frozen gefilte fish is the way to go! At our house, it's rare to find a loaf of boiled gefilte fish on our Shabbat or Yom Tov table. Try serving your gefilte fish breaded and fried -- your family will thank you and ask for more!

There are a number of variants to this recipe. When I was little, my mother used chow mein noodles, and because they were curly, we called them chocolate spiders. But this finished product looks a lot more like branches – ergo, “chocolate s’chach.” If you like the combining sweet and salty flavors (plus crunchy and chewy), this dessert is bound to be a hit with adults and kids alike!

For those who live in colder climates, one of Sukkot’s bigger challenges is to overcome the chilliness that comes with outdoor eating. This Hot Apple Toddy serves double duty – it will simultaneously warm your hands and your insides.

When it comes to soup, I like to offer my guests a vegetarian option. I should also add that this soup is totally fat free and so full of nutrients. So, whether you're on a weight-loss program, prefer to make healthier choices or are looking for a vegetarian option, this soup is for you! Also, if you're cooking ahead for another occasion, this soup freezes very well!

Yields 8-12 slices

I'm actually embarrassed to call this a "recipe." All you need is a loaf of your favorite brand of frozen gefilte fish. You have the option to sprinkle this dish with seasoning if you prefer, but it tastes great on its own. It's so easy to make and is always a crowd pleaser.
