Step 1
Separate the yolks from the egg whites. Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve and place it into the mixer bowl. Add egg whites, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and baking powder to the cottage cheese (you can substitute the baking powder with baking soda neutralized with lemon juice or vinegar). Mix all the ingredients with a mixer until smooth.

Step 3
Knead the dough. It should be smooth, elastic, and easy to work with. Thanks to the vegetable oil, the dough will not stick to your hands.

Step 4
Take apples and wash them. For turnovers, it's best to choose sweet and firm varieties, not overripe fruits. Peel them and remove the core with seeds. Grate the apples on a coarse grater and sprinkle them with cinnamon.
