Cottage cheese Easter in the oven
For Bright Sunday, not only classic cottage cheese Easter or custard royal Easter. Very tender, literally melting in the mouth, baked cottage cheese Easter in the oven turns out. Fat sour cream, butter, and eggs are mixed together with cottage cheese to a creamy state, which guarantees the product a uniform silky texture, while a large amount of candied fruits, raisins, and poppy seeds enhances the taste sensations.
Preparation time: 1 hour 30 minutes + 3 hours for cooling and stabilizing the Easter.
Ingredients
Show ingredients
- paste-like cottage cheese with 9% fat – 540 g;
- butter 82% (melted and cooled) – 100 g;
- sour cream 20% – 140 g;
- eggs C 1 – 4 pcs;
- white sugar – 80 g;
- vanillin – 1 packet;
- starch (any) – 15 g;
- zest of 1 orange;
- poppy seeds – 30 g;
- candied fruits – 50 g;
- raisins – 100 g.
Preparation
- Prepare the ingredients. You can substitute the orange for a lemon, and the starch for semolina. It's better to take cottage cheese in packs (it is paste-like in them, and you won’t have to grind it through a sieve). If the mass is lumpy, it will need to be ground beforehand. Immediately turn on the oven to preheat, setting it to 160 degrees, and place a tray of water on the lower rack.
- Grate the orange part of the orange with a fine grater.
- In a large bowl with cottage cheese, add sour cream, sugar, vanillin.
- Pour in the melted butter.
- Use a mixer to turn this mixture into a smooth, uniform mass.
- Add the starch.
- Beat in 1 egg at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
- After final beating with a mixer, the result should be a uniform silky paste.
- Place a portion of this paste (about 150 grams) into a separate bowl.
- Add the poppy seeds to it.
- Mix well.
- Rinse the raisins, pour boiling water over them, and dry with a paper towel.
- Add the orange zest to the larger portion of the cottage cheese paste.
- Then add the candied fruits and raisins.
- Mix everything together.
- Prepare a form, which should be lined with parchment and, if necessary, reinforced with foil on the outside. If you are unsure about the quality of the baking paper, grease it with butter so that the Easter does not stick during baking.
- First, pour the mass with poppy seeds into the form.
- Then the one with dried fruits. Place the form in the oven on the middle rack.
- Bake the cottage cheese Easter in the oven for 50 minutes, then turn on the convection mode to brown the top and bake for another 7 minutes. If this function is not available in the oven, increase the temperature to 180 degrees and leave the Easter there for another 10 minutes.
- The cottage cheese Easter in the oven is ready. Remove the form from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Then cover with a towel and send to the refrigerator for a couple of hours to stabilize the structure.
- After this time, remove the Easter from the form. Grease the top with condensed milk or melted chocolate, and sprinkle with coconut flakes.
In flavor, the cottage cheese Easter in the oven resembles a delicate cheesecake with a large amount of dried fruits. The structure of the product has compacted well, but remains delicate and holds its shape well when cut. This version of Easter will undoubtedly decorate Bright Christ's Resurrection.
