Although these are bars rather than cutouts, they still taste great! The Linzer Cookie family is a group of cookies with enough variation that some of its recipes call for cocoa. No matter the kind, all cookies have a buttery, crunchy foundation consisting of finely chopped almonds and a fruit-jam core.

Reviews
This is a great recipe! Since we are on Keto i substituted regular flour with almond flour – ended up adding 6t tablespoons. Also added 1 teaspoon of baking soda since almond flour is heavier. Salt, pepper. My broccoli was fresh, not frozen. Very happy with the result. Great recipe all around – looks and tastes awesome.
I baked it in square tins and it made 3 kugels. Delicious!
My husband and I really liked this, especially eliminating processed ingredients and being able to control salt. I threw in some mushrooms and garlic with the onions and some salt substitute. A great way to serve broccoli to a crowd. Thanks for sharing.
I added cornflake crumbs on top. It came out amazing! Will definitely make again.
it was better when I made it with vegan cheese, but oerall it’s the best recipe I’ve found for this dish.
I couldn’t find 16 ounce bags of broc so I bought 3 10 ounce boxes. I think next time I might use a slightly less mayo but everyone loved it! I only cooked it for 60 min – I think it would’ve burned if I cooked it for 90 min
very good recipe for crustless “quiche”. I did add cheese and bacon. Good, easy dinner. Glad to find a recipe w/o the canned soups as ingredients. Thank you!
OMG this is sooooo good!!! I’ve made it three times now and although it makes a massive pan full, I’ve wound up with ZERO leftovers every single time. It comes out very much like a broccoli quiche. Good as a side dish, but it would also be awesome for breakfast because of this. Quick, easy, DELICIOUS. I highly recommend!
This was goooood! I added some minced fresh garlic to the sauteed onion, used Herbamare instead of regular salt, and added about a half cup of parmesan to the mix, plus a little sprinkle on top. Aged cheddar would be good too. Will make again. Cooked in 60 minutes. **Updated on Aug 10th! Just made this again with 3 crowns of fresh broccoli and crumbled feta mixed in, grated cheddar on top, and we baked it in the 8″ cast iron frying pan that we sauteed the onions in, it cooked in 45 minutes and was most excellent.
Had 60 minutes to make a “veggie” hot dish for a pot luck. Made this added a bag of frozen portabella mushrooms and bacon bits – had to microwave for 20 minutes to speed up cook time. Turned out great!!!!
I did make several adjustments based off the reviews of others. I added a pinch of fresh ground nutmeg, pinch cayenne, large pinch granulated garlic. I cooked up some turkey bacon then sautéed the onions in the residue. I like the smoky flair the turkey added, I did not mix in the bacon itself. I also added 1/4 parmesan cheese. Oh, and I used fresh broccoli that had been slightly steamed. I only cooked it for 40 minutes. The result was fabulous; I have my second batch for the week baking right now. The first one went to a book club dinner with a Jewish theme. Which inspired me to find the recipe to begin with. It was a big hit.
YUmmy! We really liked this. I used half the eggs and mayonnaise and it still was yummy! great base.
Nice, kind of a quiche without the crust but not nearly as much flavor. I would not have made it dairy free (I’m guessing that was a dietary choice.) Swiss or guyere would be a nice addition. We were okay with it, but not a repeat.
Love, love, love this casserole! Used lite mayo to reduce calories, and added garlic powder and reduced fat cheese blend. Yummy!
This is a great recipe and so versatile! I’ve tried it with fresh broccoli and it was delicious. Today I substituted red bell peppers for the broccoli and it was even better. I’ve also made it with asparagus. As other reviewers, I think it really benefits from a dash of garlic powder and tiny sprinkle of nutmeg. I’ve made it without the flour for gluten-free guests and it worked out just as well that way. I’ve also made it in a muffin tin for appetizers, and they turned out delicious and beautiful. Thanks!
Didn’t think this was very good. Also didn’t think it was particularly fast/easy to make. You have to remember to thaw the broccoli, grease the pan, saute the onions, get another bowl dirty to mix the ingredients, then bake for 90 mins…makes a mess and takes forever.
This was delicious! I added 1/3 cup cheddar cheese (I halved the recipe) and 1/4 tablespoon garlic powder. I didn’t brown the onions as long as directed, only about 15 min total. I cooked it for about 40 min. I will definitely make it again!
Not only am I a new mom, I’m also always looking for non-dairy (parve) kugels/casseroles. Not only is this truly do-able for a new mom, it’s also delicious!! I followed the recipe almost exactly – only change is I felt it was lacking some kind of spice, so I mixed in… was it paprika? There’s a new mom memory for you… Anyway, if you want a green+cheese dish, make Spinach Brownies from AR; if you want a great non-dairy green baked dish, this kugel is excellent (just throw in your own spice preference for a bit of flavor)! ~ UPDATE ~ I’m giving this a fifth star because I make it all of the time – my kids love it, my guests love it, my husband loves it. I season it with a heaping teaspoon of chicken consomme powder.
i have made this one a bunch of times…. recently i increased the amount of onions and it was amazing as well.. can also be put on a pie shell.
Wonderful classic recipe, even better with 3/4C of shredded cheddar cheese!
Great recipe! Can make as-is for a mild side dish, or spice up and/or add extras for a main meal.
