Cherry pie made with cottage cheese dough
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. Beautiful cherry pie. Rub the butter into the flour, add sugar and cottage cheese, then knead the dough. Let it rest in the refrigerator for an hour, then roll it out and bake for 20 minutes. Bring the cherries and sugar to a boil over low heat, add gelatin, then cool. Place the berries onto the baked crust and pour over the slightly thickening juice. Refrigerate the pie until completely set, then serve. Serve warm or chilled. Ideal with tea.

Step 3
Sprinkle cherries with sugar to taste, place them in a saucepan, and set over low heat. Do not add water—the juice released from the fruit is sufficient. When the berries come to a boil, add the previously soaked gelatin. Stir well and place in a cool spot until completely cooled.

Step 4
Roll out the dough to fit the size of the pan, prick it several times with a fork, and bake for 20 minutes in a preheated oven at 180°C. Then spread only the berries over the resulting crust. Wait until the cherry juice with gelatin begins to set, and only then pour it over the pie. This is important to prevent it from soaking into the dough. Immediately place in the refrigerator and wait for it to set completely before serving.
