Instructions

  1. Chop the nuts and toast them in a pan without fat. Crumble the pumpernickel and fry in butter in a pan for approx. 5 minutes until crispy. Add the nuts and let cool.
  2. Caramelize the apples in the pan with a spoonful of honey. Add the cherries and simmer into a compote.
  3. Fold the whipped cream into the quark. Season the cream quark with vanilla and the compote with cinnamon.
  4. Now layer the quark in a glass and garnish with compote, nuts and honey.
  5. Tips: Here you can let your imagination run wild again. The apples go well in winter. In summer you can use berries, cherries, peaches and much more.
  6. Almonds also go well with the pumpernickel sprinkles.
  7. If you want to put this dessert on a buffet, simply use smaller glasses and several guests can snack.
