It’s such an easy recipe. When I don’t know what to serve for dinner, I tend to pull out this easy Amish buttered egg noodle recipe because I know my kids will love it and even ask for seconds. Amish Butter Noodles is the perfect side dish recipe. The best part is you only need four ingredients to make it!

What are Amish Noodles Made of? 

Amish noodles are made from eggs, flour, salt, and a few cups of water. You can make homemade egg noodles if you want or get a package of egg noodles from your local grocery store to save time. Amish noodles recipes are pretty easy to make at home. 

To make homemade noodles, you simply combine all four ingredients to make a dough, roll it out, and slice it into small pieces to form pasta shapes of your desired width. From there, let them dry completely until you are ready to boil as you would any other store bought noodle, and enjoy! Amish noodles are great in a handful of side dishes and main meals like these Amish buttered noodles or even chicken noodle soup!

How to Make Amish Butter Noodles 

Ingredients: 

  1. Butter
  2. Chicken broth (you can swap for vegetable broth)
  3. Chicken bouillon cube (these are the ones we always use)
  4. Egg noodles
  5. Salt to taste
ingredients on table.

Instructions: 

In a medium-sized pot add the tablespoons of butter, chicken broth, and bouillon cube, bringing to a low boil on medium-high heat. Mix to fully melt butter.

Add egg noodles into the pot with the melted butter mixture, and bring to a second boil.

Now here’s the secret cooking method that makes them so fluffy: Turn off the heat, cover the pot with a lid and allow it to stand for 30 minutes on the burner. Take the lid off and stir every 10 minutes.

Recipe Help 

If you don’t have a boullion cube, you can skip it. The chicken stock flavor won’t be as strong but they’re still delicious! 

How long do you cook Amish noodles? 

First bring your noodles to a boil, then let them set for 30 minutes, removing the lid to stir every ten minutes. If you check the noodles and they still aren’t cooked, turn the heat on for another 1-2 minutes until the noodles are cooked to your liking. The noodles should be tender, but not too chewy.

Can I use regular noodles?

Technically, yes, you can make this recipe with regular pasta. But it would no longer be an Amish buttered noodle dish. More like just buttered noodles. Amish noodles are an egg-based noodle you can buy from the store or make at home with eggs, a few cups water, flour, and salt.

What to Serve with Amish Butter Noodles 

Amish Buttered Noodles is a good recipe to serve alongside a main meal like pork chops, baked chicken, etc. You can even serve your Amish noodles with shredded chicken in a pasta-like dish with a side of green beans. However you decide to enjoy these delicious buttered noodles, you can’t go wrong! This Amish buttered egg noodles recipe has become a staple in our house! 

How to Store Amish Butter Noodles

If you have leftovers, you can store your Amish buttered noodles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. They are great to enjoy for lunch or as a side dish with dinner the following day.

If you’re looking for some quick meals to add to your list of favorite recipes, these Amish noodles make a great side dish that the whole family will love. Try this recipe tonight! Or a save to try later. It’s sure to become a staple in your house too!
