Step 1
Mash the cottage cheese and softened butter with a fork, add the egg, baking powder, and salt, then mix. Gradually add flour to this mixture and knead the dough until it becomes very soft and tender. Shape the dough into a ball, cover it with a towel, and place it in the refrigerator for now.

Step 2
While the dough is resting, place a skillet on the stove, add the remaining butter and sugar, then pour in the mineral water to make a caramel. Once the mixture thickens, add the peeled and diced apple, sauté for a couple of minutes, turn off the heat, and let it cool.

When the filling has cooled slightly, take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll it out on a floured flat surface into a thin layer. Then, using a cup, cut out circles from the dough and place a portion of the filling onto each circle, sprinkling it with cinnamon.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the buns on it. Brush their tops with milk (for a golden crust). Put the baking sheet into a preheated oven at 170-180°C (340-355°F) for 30 minutes. Once ready, sprinkle the buns with ground cinnamon and powdered sugar, then serve.
