Baked papanaşi
Makes 16
500g cottage cheese
a few drops of vanilla extract
zest from one organic orange
2 eggs
2 tbsp of coconut sugar
1/2 sachet of baking powder
330g flour
+sour cream, blueberry preserves
Fried, boiled, and even baked, papanaşi are always tasty!
However, there are times when – even with all the ingredients at hand –, I’m not in the mood to fry them. This recipe is precisely for those times!
They are easy to put together. Mix the cottage cheese, the vanilla extract, the orange zest, and the eggs. Add the coconut sugar, the baking powder, and the flour. Knead until the dough is firm and not sticky. Optional: keep it in the fridge for 45 minutes to turn it even firmer.
Then, divide it into 4. Each piece of dough will make 4 papanaşi. You’ll work with dough balls. Flatten each and make a hole in their centre.
Shape them well before getting them into the oven. They’ll bake for 20 minutes at 180⁰C, in a baking pan lined with baking parchment.
They turned golden and I served them with lots of local sour cream and blueberry preserves.
