Buns in apple caramel with nuts are a true delight of Russian cuisine. They are made from a tender cottage cheese dough that becomes soft and airy after baking. The caramel from apple juice adds a sweet fruity note, while walnuts provide crunch and rich flavor. The bright strawberry coating makes the buns especially attractive and juicy. This treat not only pleases the taste but also looks festive, like a magical delicacy. Perfect for cozy family tea time or a festive table.

6. We wrap this dough in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

7. Take the dough out of the fridge and divide it into as many parts as you need. Start rolling each part into a rectangle.

8. While the rectangles are on the table, let's prepare the caramel.

9. Caramel: Pour sugar into a container, add clear apple juice, and place it on low heat. Stir until the caramel boils (i.e., the mass should be covered with bubbles and become transparent). To check readiness: add a drop of caramel to very cold water. If it hardens, you can turn off the heat. The main thing is that the caramel should not turn sugary, otherwise, everything will spoil, and it won't be what you need.
