Cottage Cheese Pastry with Raisins
Baking and Desserts • European
Description
If desired, you can add an egg, baking powder, and sugar to the dough. You can also use 200 grams of butter instead of 100 grams, especially if the cottage cheese is low-fat. This is up to your discretion. I usually use less flour, adjusting based on the consistency of the dough. There's also an option to place a round slice of apple in the center.
Ingredients
- Cottage cheese 20 oz
- Butter 5 oz
- Wheat Flour 5 oz
- Chicken Egg 1 piece
- Sugar 4 tablespoons
- Raisins to taste
- Vanilla salt 1 tablespoon
Step-by-Step Guide

Mix the cottage cheese with chopped butter (for a creamier texture, you can push the cottage cheese through a sieve).

Brush the larger circles with the egg beaten with sugar.

Place the smaller circles on top. Brush with the remaining egg mixture. Press a raisin into the center of the pastry.
