This allows you to use any filling: cheese, nuts, poppy seeds, jam, chocolate, fruit. You can even use your imagination and fill it with, say, chicken and mushrooms. All in your hands!
We have put together a selection of 5 original recipes for cottage cheese bagels. Try baking them and you will see that they are almost impossible to resist.
Cottage cheese bagels with cinnamon
Cinnamon is perfect for filling if you are making bagels with yeast dough. I don’t like the option with curd dough, but there’s no arguing about tastes.
Use more butter or margarine for the dough. Instead of 100 g, take 170 g. The result will be a more sandy dough. If you want tender bagels, keep them in the cold for no more than 30 minutes. If exposed to cold for a long time, the dough will become harder after baking.
Mix cinnamon with sugar and sprinkle on the rolled out dough until cut. Wrap the bagels.
How to make bagels from cottage cheese?
Today, cottage cheese bagels are made according to different recipes. The authorship of the dish is defended by the French, and the chefs of Vienna are sure that it is the invention of Austrian bakers, who were the first to come up with crescent-shaped products in the 17th century to commemorate the unsuccessful siege of the capital by the Turks. This recipe was brought to Russia - according to one version - by French chefs, when it became fashionable for nobles to hire such specialists.
For small baked goods, puff pastry or shortcrust pastry is better suited; to make it pliable, you need to wrap it in film and put it in the cold for half an hour. Tips on how to make delicious bagels from curd dough:
- When kneading, avoid drafts, otherwise a hard crust will form.
- All components should be at room temperature.
- Put fresh, fatty cottage cheese.
Features of the filling: jam, jam, marmalade, condensed milk and berries
Choose a thick filling. If you decide to make cottage cheese bagels with condensed milk, then it must be boiled. Jam and jam will not leak out if you hold it well in the spoon.
It turns out very tasty with peach and cherry jam. Marmalade is also suitable for filling.
If you use fresh berries for the filling, dry them first. Cherries, currants, blueberries, and raspberries must be completely dry. If there is moisture, the cookies will turn out to be an order of magnitude lower in taste.
Bagels made from curd dough with chocolate and nuts
This is one of my favorite recipes.
Dough:
- 150 grams of butter.
- 2 eggs.
- 250 g of cottage cheese.
- 400 grams of flour.
- 1 packet of baking powder or 1 tsp of slaked soda.
- 250 grams of sugar.
Knead the dough and refrigerate for 20 minutes. Divide the dough into three parts. Roll out each third into a circle. Cut the triangles.
For the filling, take a regular chocolate bar. Dark chocolate will do. With milk it turns out worse for my taste, but you might like it. The ideal option is dark porous chocolate. There it is divided into pieces of the required size. The strip of chocolate for the filling should be 1 cm wide. Place one nut along with the chocolate. I liked it with hazelnuts and almonds. Cashews get lost in baked goods.
