Prepare the yeast dough according to your preferred recipe. Let it rise until doubled in bulk.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Ensure the dough is at room temperature for optimal rising. - 2
Grease a baking tray (approx. 40x30 cm) and line with parchment paper. Roll out the yeast dough to fit the tray, ensuring there are no gaps. Place the tray in a warm place to let the dough rest and rise again.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: The dough should not be too thick, about 0.5 cm. - 3
Preheat the oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF).
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking. - 4
For the cottage cheese layer: In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese, 1 tablespoon flour, 1 egg, 70g sugar, 50g sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth. If using raisins, stir them in.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: If your cottage cheese is very moist, drain it well or blend it to a smoother consistency. - 5
Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the rested yeast dough.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Ensure an even layer for consistent baking. - 6
For the apple layer: In a separate bowl, mix the thinly sliced apples with 100g sugar. In another bowl, whisk together 2 eggs, 150g sour cream, and 1 tablespoon flour until smooth.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Slice the apples thinly for even cooking. - 7
Arrange the sugared apple slices in rows over the cottage cheese layer, covering the entire surface.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Overlap the apple slices slightly. - 8
Pour the egg and sour cream mixture evenly over the apples.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: This mixture will bind the apples and create a moist topping. - 9
In a small bowl, mix 2 teaspoons cinnamon with 2 teaspoons sugar. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cake.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Adjust cinnamon and sugar to your preference. - 10
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and the filling is set.
- 11
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into desired portions.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Cooling in the tray prevents the cake from breaking.
