Orange curd biscuit is a fragrant, incredibly tasty, healthy dish. It can be served for breakfast or afternoon tea, with a cup of hot tea or coffee. This biscuit is prepared simply and quickly.
It is necessary
- - oranges - 2-3 pieces
- - eggs - 3 pieces
- - sugar - 100 g
- - vanilla sugar - 1 tsp
- - cottage cheese - 200 g
- - flour - 100 g
- - salt - 1/4 teaspoon
- - soda - 1/2 tsp
- - butter - 10 g
Instructions
Step 1
Wash oranges thoroughly and dry with a towel.
Step 2
Beat eggs with sugar in a deep bowl until thick foam. Beat with a mixer / blender or just a whisk. Add vanilla sugar (optional).
Step 3
Lightly remove the zest from one orange with a grater. Orange (like lemon) zest gives baked goods a subtle, delicate flavor.
Step 4
Add cottage cheese, stir. You can take cottage cheese of any fat content. The lower the fat content, the more dietary the biscuit will be. Any curd can be used - soft, grained, etc.
Step 5
Add flour, a pinch of salt, soda. Mix.
Step 6
Peel the oranges. It is more convenient for me to cut the orange into quarters and peel the quarters. Someone prefers to peel the whole orange - with a knife or hands.
Step 7
Cut the peeled oranges into small pieces, at the same time getting rid of seeds and tough membranes. Add to the dough, mix.
Step 8
Grease a baking dish with a piece of butter. Put in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
Step 9
In the absence of cottage cheese, it can be excluded. Then you get a regular orange sponge cake. Replace oranges with apples for apple charlotte. Any fruit can be used in this recipe if desired.
