Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make Kroshka pie in the oven with cottage cheese? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. For the filling, take soft cottage cheese, not very wet. For uniformity, you can rub it through a sieve or punch it with an immersion blender. You will learn all the subtleties of choosing cottage cheese by reading the article at the end of this recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   Grate the hard butter on a coarse grater and mix with sugar and flour. Rub everything with your hands. You should get sand crumbs.

3. STEP 3

   

   For the pie, take a springform baking dish (20cm). Line the bottom of the pan with parchment and place the sides on it. Place half of the sand crumbs on the bottom of the mold and compact it in an even layer over the entire bottom. You will learn how to choose a mold of the appropriate size from the article at the end of the recipe.

4. STEP 4

   

   To prepare the curd filling, take a deep bowl and place the cottage cheese in it. Add sugar and eggs. Sprinkle with a pinch of vanilla to taste. How to properly replace vanillin, read the article at the link at the end of this recipe. Mix all ingredients until smooth. If the cottage cheese is very wet, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of starch.

5. STEP 5

   

   The finished mass is not very thick.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the resulting curd filling into the mold.

7. STEP 7

   

   Sprinkle the remaining crumb dough evenly over the top. Place the pan in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for about 45-50 minutes. Time and temperature are approximate, use your oven as a guide. Read more about ovens in the article below the steps.

8. STEP 8

   

   The pie will brown slightly during cooking. Halfway through baking, the center of the pie will wobble a little because the filling is runny. But then everything will bake well.

9. STEP 9

   

   Remove the finished shortbread curd pie from the oven and cool. Then transfer to a plate and serve. Enjoy your tea!

I was very happy when I saw on the website a recipe for crumb cake in the oven with cottage cheese! After all, this is one of my favorite pies. It contains a lot of cottage cheese and crispy shortbread crumbs! I prepared the dough in a blender, it’s faster and easier for me. Although I used to grind it with my hands or chop it with a knife, this makes the crumbs larger. I also whipped the filling with a blender; we like it when the filling is smooth and homogeneous. For lovers of curd crumbs, of course, it’s better to just mix everything with a fork or whisk. There are a lot of eggs in the filling, so it hardens perfectly during baking. Even when warm, the pie slices perfectly. Before kneading the dough and making the filling, I added the number of servings so that I got 800 g of cottage cheese. Therefore, my pie came out larger in size; I baked it in a rectangular glass pan for 1 hour. Very tasty pie! The crumbs are crunchy, the filling is tender! After chilling in the refrigerator it became even better! I recommend it! Julia, thanks for the recipe!

Yulia, good evening Thank you very much for the wonderful recipe for crumb cake in the oven with cottage cheese. This is not the first time my family and I have prepared it using your recipe. We really like it. I have a question for you. Is it possible to reduce the amount of butter and sugar for 8 servings, as you write in the recipe, so that the quality of the pie does not deteriorate? If so, for how long? My mother has diabetes, but she loves the pie according to your recipe. Thank you in advance.
