Curd Braid with Raisins and Jam

Insanely simple and delicious! Very fragrant, delicate curd braid with jam and raisins. Everyone will be delighted! Cook two servings at once!

Ingredients

For the Dough:

• Curd 9% – 150 g
• Vegetable oil – 40 ml
• Egg – 1 pc.
• Wheat flour – 200 g
• Sugar – 50 g
• Vanilla sugar – 1 teaspoon
• Salt – 1/3 teaspoon
• Baking powder – 1 teaspoon.

For filling:

• Jam (any, I have an orange one) – 3 tbsp
• Raisins – 100 g
• Butter – 30 g

Directions

1. Put cottage cheese (soft) in a bowl, add sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, egg, vegetable oil, mix with an immersion blender
2. Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl with curd mass.
3. Knead soft dough. Put the dough in a bag and leave it on the table for 10 minutes.
4. Wash the raisins and dry them with a paper towel. Roll out the curd dough into a 3 mm thick rectangle. Grease the rolled dough with jam and sprinkle with raisins.

   

5. We roll the dough with the filling into a roll, pinch the edge. We cut the roll longitudinally in the middle, not reaching the upper edge.
6. We fold it into a pigtail (we twist the two parts of the roll together).
7. Line the baking dish with parchment paper. We spread the curd braid into a mold. Put small pieces of butter on top. We bake curd cake with raisins and jam in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 30 minutes (focus on your oven). We determine the readiness of the cake with a wooden stick – it should come out dry.
8. Fragrant, ruddy cottage cheese pastries with raisins and jam are ready

Bon Appetit! Enjoy cooking!
