Ingredients
  

  • 500 gram cottage cheese (fat content 5-18%)
  • 2 pcs eggs
  • 2 tablespoons semolina
  • 100 ml milk
  • 50 gram Sahara
  • 250-300 gram pumpkins
  • 2-3 pcs apples
  • 2 tablespoons raisins
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt
  • butter for greasing the mold

Instructions
 

  • Warm the milk (do not boil!) and pour it over the semolina. The semolina will add fluffiness and volume to the casserole. Pour boiling water over the raisins. Choose light-colored raisins for the casserole—they look nicer and have a sweeter taste.
  • Blend the cottage cheese or mash it with a sieve—the cottage cheese shouldn't be too dry or crumbly. Lightly beat the eggs with a fork or whisk and add them to the cottage cheese. Season with salt and sugar. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until smooth.
  • Wash the fruit thoroughly. Peel the apples and pumpkin, remove the cores and seeds, and cut into pieces. You can blend or grate them coarsely.
  • Mix the curd mixture with the soaked semolina, add the raisins, cinnamon, pumpkin, and apples. Mix thoroughly again.
  • Grease a baking dish and pour the pumpkin-apple mixture into it. Bake in a preheated oven at 180–190 degrees Celsius for about 1 hour, if you like a crispy crust.
  • Cool and serve with tea. Top the casserole with yogurt, jam, or sour cream, depending on your preference. A healthy and delicious breakfast is ready!

Note

Secrets of the Perfect Casserole

  • How to choose a sweet pumpkin? Choose a medium-sized fruit, free from mechanical damage, with a firm, aromatic skin. The stem should be dry.
  • Which pan should I choose for making a casserole? You can cook a casserole in a cast-iron pan—nothing will stick to it; the advantage of an aluminum pan is that it's disposable and doesn't require washing. In a glass pan, your dish will stay warm for a long time, and silicone doesn't even need oiling.
  • What spices go well with pumpkin and apple casserole? Ginger, ground cinnamon, or nutmeg will enhance the flavor of sweet dishes and make them more aromatic. Lemon zest or vanilla sugar are also great options.
