Quick cottage cheese casserole made from creamy crumbs is a classic Russian dessert that combines the tenderness of cottage cheese with crispy creamy crumbs. The history of such casseroles goes back centuries when housewives used simple ingredients to create delicious and nutritious dishes. In this recipe, cottage cheese is mixed with eggs and sugar to create an airy base, while flour and butter turn into golden crumbs that provide a textural contrast. After baking, a rosy, fragrant casserole with a delicate creamy-cottage flavor emerges. It is perfect for breakfast or a light dessert, especially with a cup of tea or sour cream. The simplicity of preparation makes it an excellent option for home baking that delights both children and adults.
