Description

To prevent the berries from 'leaking', you can sprinkle the rolled-out dough with crushed dry cookies or oatmeal before baking. You can also use any seasonal berries - strawberries, cherries, raspberries, and other berries that pair well with cottage cheese are suitable for this recipe.

Ingredients

Butter - 2.8 oz
Egg - 1 piece
Oatmeal - 1.8 oz
Whole Wheat Flour - 5.6 oz
Salt - a pinch
Baking Powder - ½ teaspoon
Brandy - 0 fl oz
Cottage cheese - 10.6 oz
Blueberries - 3.5 oz
Dark Chocolate - 2.1 oz
Ground Cinnamon - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Beat the softened butter with the egg.

Step 2

Mix in the oatmeal, sifted flour with baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Add a drop of brandy, vodka, or cognac. Gather a soft, manageable dough.

Step 3

Roll the dough into a circle with a diameter of 25-30 cm (better to do this on floured parchment paper), while preheating the oven to 180-374°F.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, prepare the filling: mix the sieved cottage cheese, chopped chocolate, and washed dry berries into a uniform mass. Optionally, you can add 30-50 grams of aromatic raw sugar (or regular granulated sugar) and flavor it with cinnamon.

Step 5

Place the filling in the center of the dough (leaving a 4-7 cm border) and form the edges of the pie by folding the free edge towards the center. Brush the surface of the dough with the beaten egg.

Step 6

Transfer the pie to a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes. Then cool at room temperature and cut into portioned pieces. An ideal accompaniment would be whipped cream or sour cream with jam.
