Homemade egg noodles are easy to make and so delicious.

Using staple ingredients, this egg noodle recipe is a great side dish for almost any meal and is fun to prepare—no special tools needed!

Difficulty: You’ll be surprised how easy these egg noodles are to prepare, and best of all, you don’t need any special tools.
Technique: Roll the dough thin because the egg noodles will plump up as they cook.
Prep ahead: These noodles cannot be dried, but can be frozen before cooking and boiled from frozen.
Budget tip: Use these homemade egg noodles to replace Reames frozen noodles for a fraction of the cost (and a delicious homemade flavor).
Time-saving tip: Prep a double batch and freeze half to have egg noodles ready at any time.
Serving suggestions: These noodles are great served with almost any recipe that has sauce or gravy. We also love them in chicken noodle soup.

Ingredients For Homemade Egg Noodles

This recipe tastes best when the freshest ingredients are used. Fresh whole eggs, full-fat milk, and butter will guarantee the best results.

Flour: Use all-purpose flour for the best texture and structure. This has not been tested with alternatives.
Eggs: Use large eggs for structure and moisture. Room-temperature eggs are not required but can be easier to incorporate into the dough.
Milk: Whatever milk is in your fridge (including dairy-free) will work in this recipe. Alternatives can change the flavor slightly.
Butter: Butter adds a richness and flavor.

adding wet and dry ingredients to make Egg Noodles

These noodles will thicken once cooked—roll them a bit thinner than you want them.
A pizza cutter is a great way to cut the noodles (but a knife works just fine too).
It is important to use a large pot of salted boiling water when cooking the egg noodles as they need space to cook properly.
Cook fresh noodles for 3 to 4 minutes and frozen noodles for about 5 to 6 minutes.
Once cooked, drain and serve immediately with butter and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese or your favorite sauce.

Storage, Freezing, and Leftovers

To make ahead: Prep the noodles and place them on a baking sheet. Cover them with plastic wrap for up to 4 hours.

To store: Keep leftover cooked egg noodles in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Spray them with a little pan release if they are stuck together before using them again.

To freeze: Assemble uncooked egg noodles ahead and freeze them on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a zippered bag for up to 4 months.

Egg Noodles

This easy recipe for egg noodles uses simple ingredients to create tender, homemade noodles perfect for any dish.

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 3 minutes

Rest Time 20 minutes

Total Time 43 minutes

▢ 2¼ cups all purpose flour divided
▢ ⅛ teaspoon salt or to taste
▢ 2 large eggs
▢ ⅓ cup milk
▢ 1 tablespoon butter softened

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of flour and salt. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the eggs, milk and butter to the flour mixture. Stir with a fork to bring the ingredients together and once a dough begins to form, use your hands to combine.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured work surface, adding more flour a little bit at a time if it's too sticky. Continue kneading for about 5 minutes or until smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Using the remaining flour, generously flour your work surface. Roll the dough into a long rectangle about ⅛ inch thick (If desired, split the dough in half and roll it out in batches to make it easier to handle). Cut into strips with a pizza cutter or knife and dust with flour.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
Add the noodles and cook for 3 minutes or until cooked. Serve with butter or your favorite sauce.

Leftover egg noodles can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
