Ingredients:

• Cottage cheese 5% – 330 g

3. Add vanilla, baking powder, and an apple grated on a coarse grater, pitted raisins, and mix again until smooth.
4. Add the flour gradually, kneading a soft dough. The amount of flour may vary slightly depending on the juiciness of the apple and the fat content of the cottage cheese.
