Cottage cheese and fruit casserole is a delicate treat of Russian cuisine that embodies the simplicity and coziness of home. The origins of this dish trace back to village traditions where cottage cheese, an accessible and nutritious product, was combined with fruits for freshness and a slight tang. The casserole becomes airy and sweet due to semolina and whipped egg whites, while apples and raisins add a natural fruity note. Enriched with butter and milk, it gains a rich flavor and pleasant texture. The dish is perfect for breakfast or a light dessert, and when paired with sour cream, it becomes even more indulgent. Cottage cheese and fruit casserole is a childhood memory when the smell of fresh baking filled the house, creating an atmosphere of comfort and warmth.
