Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a puff pastry pie with cottage cheese in the oven? First, prepare all the necessary ingredients for the streusel. Take premium flour. Take the butter straight from the refrigerator.

2. STEP 2

   

   In a blender bowl, combine flour, sugar and cold butter. Blend until finely chopped. Set streusel aside.

3. STEP 3

   

   Now prepare the rest of the products according to the list. You can replace the yeast-free dough with puff pastry. You can use ready-made store-bought or homemade dough. The dough must be defrosted on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. You can make your own homemade dough. You will find the recipes after the last step. The cottage cheese should not be very wet. Cottage cheese in briquettes is ideal. You will find information about choosing cottage cheese after the last step. Turn on the oven at 180

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the raisins and dry. Any raisin will do - large or small, dark or light.

5. STEP 5

   

   Beat the egg with a fork until smooth. Divide the beaten egg into two unequal parts

6. STEP 6

   

   If necessary, rub the cottage cheese through a sieve. In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, most of the beaten egg, sugar and vanilla. Mash with a fork until smooth.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add the raisins and mix again. If you wish, you can omit the raisins at all. Or replace it with other dried fruits.

8. STEP 8

   

   Roll each sheet of dough into a rectangular layer (if you have dough in the form of a roll, roll it out and divide it into two parts). Make several parallel oblique cuts along the edges of the rectangle.

9. STEP 9

   

   Place half of the curd filling in the center. Fold the end edges of the dough inward. Braid the cut edges of the dough.

10. STEP 10

    

    Transfer the blanks to a parchment-lined baking sheet at a distance from each other and brush with the remaining beaten egg. You can choose the right parchment paper by reading a separate article about the features of parchment, the link is at the end of the recipe.

11. STEP 11

    

    Sprinkle streusel on top. Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180°C for 20-30 minutes until golden brown. If you wish, you can turn on the “grill” mode for a few minutes so that the top is properly browned. Read more about how to choose the right baking time and temperature in the article.

Super! Instead of cottage cheese, you can use hard cheese, suluguni, as in this recipe.
