So why not take note of the proposed dish? It will be the perfect companion to any family meal, no matter what it is dedicated to - a birthday or just a joint dinner with relatives. Ingredients: Dough:
- 410 grams of sifted flour
- 10 grams of baking powder
- 16 milliliters of vegetable oil - useful for lubricating the mold
- 2/3 cups of granulated sugar
- 0,5 two-hundred-gram package of margarine
Filling:
- homemade eggs - two large
- 105 milliliters of sour cream of average fat content
- 380 grams of fat-free cottage cheese
- 120 grams (or slightly more) of sugar (adjust the recipe according to personal preferences)
- vanilla sugar - optional
- three medium sweet apples
Method of preparation:Before we get down to the recipe itself, let's take a closer look at some of the nuances of the dish. First, be sure to sift the flour: if you neglect this procedure, the apple pie may turn out thin and unsightly. By passing the wheat product through a sieve, you give it the opportunity to saturate with air, due to which the dough subsequently rises well. As for sugar, as you can see, its amount varies depending on the personal preferences of the hostess. If you like very sweet pies, take 150-170 grams of granulated sugar. And now it's time to get back to baking. So, first of all, let's knead the dough - it's quite easy to do. Mix the pre-sifted flour with baking powder and sugar. It is recommended to take the margarine out of the refrigerator in advance so that it melts slightly. Grate it into strips on a grater and add to the above ingredients. Thoroughly mash the mixture with a fork, eventually you should have a homogeneous, dense dough. The recipe is almost finished, a little more, and the apple dessert will be smoking on the table. Generously grease the insides of a special dish with oil, as soon as you do, put the dough in it (not all, but only 2/3) and carefully smooth it out with your hands. Now do the filling: grind the cottage cheese, pour vanilla and regular sugar into it. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then pour them into the resulting mass. Add the specified amount of sour cream here. Grate the washed and peeled apples on the smallest grater, then combine them with the rest of the products and thoroughly knead the filling with your hands. Now spread it in an even layer over the entire surface of the dough, put the remaining 1/3 of the mass on top. You have a closed pie; If you want it to have a golden brown crust during baking, brush it with egg yolk. Put the future dessert in a hot oven set to 200 degrees. After about 20-25 minutes, you can take the dish out of the oven. This apple dessert, the recipe of which is now familiar to you, will be a wonderful reason to gather with your loved ones at the same table. Have a family tea party without any reason and enjoy communicating with each other. We wish you a good mood and a delicious meal!

It's all about the dough and the filling. The first one is very easy to prepare and even unpretentious - you don't need to have phenomenal culinary skills to make a beautiful and fluffy product.

- three apples
- 1 1/2 small cups of sugar
- 130 grams of softened margarine
For decoration:

- cocoa powder
Method of preparation:Not only the filling and taste of the product play the main role - the way you serve the dish is also important. After all, a pie decorated with fresh berries, cream, poured with icing looks much more appetizing than just pieces of delicacy scattered on a plate. Therefore, if you plan to bake an apple pie for guests, do not be lazy and use your imagination. This time we suggest applying a pattern of cream and cocoa powder to it. You will see, it will turn out very beautiful! First, of course, you need to prepare the dessert itself. To do this, sift wheat flour into a deep bowl using a sieve, add baking powder, half a glass of granulated sugar (the rest will be needed a little later) and margarine. Chop the latter into small cubes in advance. Thoroughly grind the ingredients into small crumbs. Set the resulting mass aside for a while, and concentrate on preparing the filling. The recipe is very simple: peel the apples, then divide them into two equal parts with a knife and remove the core and extra seeds from each. Now there are two options - grate the pulp or chop it into thin strips. Decide for yourself which one to choose. In any case, the dish will turn out delicious and tender. In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk, gradually mixing in the remaining sugar. If you come across cottage cheese with large grains, be sure to grind them with a fork. To save time, you can beat it in a blender. Pour the egg mixture into the product, then add cinnamon, fruit, and mix. Let's start assembling the product? The procedure is quite simple: first, cover the dishes with special paper, then put a little more than half of the resulting crumb dough into it. Put the curd-apple filling on top and sprinkle everything with the remaining mass. If you use parchment, you don’t have to oil it — it will protect the dish from burning and sticking anyway. It will also be much easier to remove the product from the dish. When you are done with all the preparations, put the pie in the oven, preheating it to 175 degrees. Time it — baking the dessert will take a quarter of an hour at most. Before taking it out, check the pie for readiness. To do this, use a regular match: pierce the cake with it and make sure that the wood remains dry. Otherwise, you will have to keep the dish in the oven for a few more minutes. Cool it immediately before serving, then pour cream over it and sprinkle with cocoa sifted through a sieve. Enjoy your tea!

It dissolves faster, so the cooking procedure will be much easier and take less time. Let's start with the dough: pass the flour through a sieve, add baking powder and mix. In another bowl, whisk the chicken eggs with sugar, a small amount of vanilla essence and butter cut into small pieces with a metal whisk. Grind the ingredients vigorously, turning them into crumbs. Add flour here and knead a soft, non-sticky dough. Separate a quarter of the mass, roll it into a ball and put it in the freezer. Roll out the remaining dough on a cutting board into a flat round flat cake. Place it in a dish covered with parchment. Take a lemon and grate it, squeeze the juice out of the remaining pulp. Cut out the core from the peeled apples and chop the pulp into thin strips. Pour sour nectar over it, add a little sugar if desired, and stir. Put the cold cottage cheese in the microwave for one minute, so it will be easier to stir. Add an egg, a few grams of starch, sugar and lemon zest to the dairy product. Grind the ingredients thoroughly, put the resulting mass in a mold on the dough, spread it evenly with a spoon over the entire surface of the product. Sprinkle with apples and previously frozen dough grated on a coarse grater on top. Place the dish in a preheated oven. To prevent the dish from burning, the oven temperature should not exceed 190 degrees. Wait 40 minutes, then take the dish out, cover it with a clean napkin and let it cool. Only then carefully remove the dessert from the mold, otherwise you may damage the product. If you liked the pie with cottage cheese and apples, next time try to change the dish a little - add a twist to it in the literal sense of the word. Add sweet juicy berries to the filling, but first soak them for ten to fifteen minutes in warm water. As for the dough, some cooks add semolina to it, which gives the crust fluffiness, makes it more satisfying and dense. So, as you can see, there is something to strive for - study the recipes and boldly implement them in your kitchen!
