Bulk pie with cottage cheese and berries
8 servings
90 minutes
The perfect combination and the perfect pie - bulk dough and cottage cheese with berries. The last two are so tender that slightly browned dough crumbs are very good for them. In addition, we added finely ground almonds to the dough , so several different textures came together here: cottage cheese, berries, dough and nuts. The berries can be anything, as long as they get along with the almonds. We used currants and raspberries and were very pleased.
