Biscuits with plums on cottage cheese dough

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Dough. To prepare the dough for biscuits with plums, we will need: flour, cottage cheese, sugar, egg, soft butter, baking powder and vanilla.

2. Step 2:

   

   In a bowl, combine cottage cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla. I took cottage cheese in a briquette. It is soft, moist, easy to knead and does not need to be additionally wiped through a sieve. If the cottage cheese is lumpy, mash it with a fork or rub it through a sieve.

3. Step 3:

   

   Mix everything until smooth. You should get a semi-liquid homogeneous mass.

4. Step 4:

   

   Sift flour with baking powder. Add the sifted flour to the curd-egg mass..

5. Step 5:

   

   Knead a soft elastic slightly sticky dough.

6. Step 6:

   

   Roll out the dough, and it is better to distribute it with your hands in an even circle with a diameter of 25-30 cm. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment. My dough stuck to the countertop, and I didn't want to hammer it with flour, so I distributed it immediately on parchment.

8. Step 7:

   

   Filling. To prepare the filling, we will need: plums, sugar and ground cinnamon.

9. Step 8:

   

   Wash the plums well, dry them. Cut the plums in half and remove the seeds. Cut each half in half again to make quarters. It is better to take hard plums, but ripe. Since soft plums can lose their shape and the biscuit will turn out ugly.

10. Step 9:

    

    Put the plum slices on the dough in a circle, stepping back from the edges about 2 cm. I laid out each circle in different directions so that the finished pastries looked spectacular.

11. Step 10:

    

    Wrap the edges of the dough inside, forming a biscuit.

12. Step 11:

    

    Sprinkle the plums with cinnamon and sugar.

13. Step 12:

    

    Bake the biscuits with plums in a preheated 180 ° C oven for about 30 minutes. Transfer the finished biscuit to a plate and cut into pieces. Bon appetit!
