60 minutes
Cottage cheese-banana pie with orange is a tender and aromatic treat that combines the creamy texture of cottage cheese, the sweetness of bananas, and a refreshing citrus note of orange. This dessert is inspired by classic American pies but gains a special lightness from yogurt and semolina. During preparation, the dough becomes airy, and fruit pieces add juiciness to it. The orange acidity balances the sweetness, making the flavor multifaceted. This pie is perfect for cozy tea parties and family breakfasts. It can be served as a standalone treat or complemented with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The simplicity of the recipe makes it accessible even for beginner cooks, while its rich taste is a favorite choice for connoisseurs of original desserts.
