Pumpkin and cottage cheese casserole

6 servings

60 minutes

Pumpkin-cottage cheese casserole is a cozy treat of European cuisine that combines the tenderness of cottage cheese with the natural sweetness of pumpkin. The dish features an airy, soft texture and a rich creamy-vanilla flavor. It is based on the tradition of using seasonal products, especially in autumn when pumpkin becomes the main ingredient in many dishes. The semolina gives the casserole a special density, while sour cream adds a light tanginess. It is the perfect treat for a family breakfast or dessert that delights both adults and children. It can be served warm, complemented with berries, honey, or nuts. The casserole is not only delicious but also nutritious – it is rich in protein and vitamins, making every bite truly nourishing.
