Tsvetaevsky cottage cheese pie
Tsvetaevskaya charlotte with apples is also prepared with cottage cheese. This is what makes its taste soft, tender and airy. The cooking process itself will take about an hour and a half, and for convenience, you should separate the processes of preparing the dough and curd filling in advance. For the test you will need:
- flour - 300 g;
- sugar - 100 g;
- sour cream - 4 tablespoons (tablespoons);
- butter - 150 g;
- baking powder for dough - 1 tsp.
For filling you need:
- sour cream - 200 g;
- flour - 2 tbsp;
- curd mass - 200g;
- sugar - 1 tbsp;
- chicken egg - 1-2 pcs.;
- sweet and sour apples - 5 pcs.;
- lemon - half.
- Sift the flour through a sieve, add granulated sugar, baking powder, sour cream and butter, which should be softened in advance. Mix well. The dough should have a homogeneous and elastic structure. Form it into a flat cake and place it in the refrigerator for a short time, just for half an hour.
- While the dough is cooling, prepare the filling by rubbing the curd mass through the same sieve. Next, the ingredients are combined in one container. Everything gets mixed up.
- Peel and core the apples and cut into small pieces. If they are not sour enough, lightly sprinkle them with lemon juice. The juice will also help them retain their original color and not darken.
- After half an hour, the dough is removed from the refrigerator. It should be rolled out into a uniform layer and placed in a baking dish, carefully shaping the sides. Next, you need to lay out the apples and fill them with curd filling. Bake at 180°C for 50 minutes.
- When baking products in the oven, it is always recommended to preheat it in advance so that you don’t have to wait long later. Not all recipes that can be found on the Internet indicate that flour, even the highest grade, must be sifted through a sieve. This must always be done to avoid the appearance of lumps while kneading the dough.
- During the baking process, after the pie has a reddish crust, check its readiness - either with a match or a toothpick, because the oven works differently for each stove. If the stick comes out of the charlotte freely and there are no pieces of dough left on it, the pie is ready.
There are a lot of recipes for curd charlottes. Each of them is completely special and deserves attention, and thanks to the experiments of talented housewives, we have the opportunity to prepare any product using simple time-tested technologies.
