Unleavened dough puffs with cottage cheese

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   We use fatty cottage cheese, it tastes better and is not as dry as low-fat cottage cheese. Pour it into a bowl, beat in the egg, add sugar and salt to taste. You can immediately beat 2 eggs separately and add one and a half eggs to the filling, leaving half to grease the puff pastry.

2. STEP 2

   

   Mix everything well to obtain a homogeneous mass. Taste it and adjust if necessary. The curd filling for the puff pastries is ready.

3. STEP 3

   

   Defrost the dough at room temperature for about an hour. The main thing is that it does not defrost too much, otherwise it will be more difficult to work with it - it will stretch and you will have to add flour to the table. Take one sheet of dough and roll it out a little with a rolling pin lengthwise and crosswise. You can immediately measure its sides to adjust all the layers to size.

4. STEP 4

   

   On one side of the workpiece we lay out the filling (it must be visually divided into 4 parts) in the shape of a rectangle, not reaching the edges.

5. STEP 5

   

   We fold the workpiece in half and pinch the edges with our hands or go through them with a fork - I chose the second option. Uneven cuts can be trimmed with a knife. We do this with all the dough. I used a small pack of dough, consisting of 4 sheets. One puff pastry will come out of one sheet - you will get four products in total.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the puff pastries on a baking sheet. which can be covered with parchment or foil, or you can leave it like that. Brush them with beaten egg.

7. STEP 7

   

   Bake in the oven at 220 degrees for 12-15 minutes. My oven bakes unevenly, so after 6 minutes I turned the baking sheet with the puff pastries over so that they were cooked equally on all sides. High temperature will allow the dough to rise and bake well. Remove the finished puff pastries from the oven and bake the next batch if they don’t all fit at once. I baked in two batches of two products.

Another option for delicious pastries made from puff pastry: puff pastry made from yeast-free dough with cottage cheese. Thawed the dough and cut it into rectangles. I used 5% cottage cheese, which I mixed with egg, sugar and a little salt. Mixed until smooth. Placed on the dough, sealed the edges, forming puffs. I brushed it with beaten yolk and put it in the oven to bake at 200° for 15 minutes. I sprinkled the finished puff pastries with powdered sugar. This is how you can quickly and easily prepare delicious puff pastries 👍, for the recipe of which I thank the author and recommend for cooking 😘
