Recipe 1: cottage cheese pancakes with raisins
Curd mass is a very convenient product for making cheesecakes. This is a soft, tender curd without lumps, usually flavored with vanilla sugar. The homogeneous consistency greatly simplifies the cooking process. You don’t have to rub the cottage cheese through a sieve or mash it with a masher; just add an egg, a little flour or semolina and you can form small round cakes. And be sure to add raisins - they make the cheesecakes much tastier!
The curd mass is already sweetened; if you bought this, add sugar in moderation. In the recipe, the amount of sugar is given taking into account that the curd is slightly sweet. But in any case, do not add too much sugar - it will melt, make the curd mass liquid and you will have to increase the amount of flour or add semolina. The recipe with photos is waiting for you step by step below, so let’s study it and prepare the most delicious cheesecakes from curd mass with raisins.
- soft curd mass – 200 g;
- raisins, dark or light – a third of a glass;
- flour - 2 tbsp. in cottage cheese + for cutting cheesecakes;
- egg – 1 pc.;
- sugar – 2 tbsp;
- vegetable oil – 3-4 tbsp;
- fine salt - on the tip of a teaspoon.
Preparation
- Knead the curd mass with a spoon or mix lightly. Add an egg, add two tablespoons of sugar or less if the cottage cheese is already sweet. Add vanilla sugar along with regular sugar if necessary.
- Mix everything thoroughly until a creamy homogeneous mass is obtained. Add flour. Perhaps the cottage cheese will be runny, then add another spoon so that the cottage cheese thickens and you can form cakes.
- Wash the raisins, pour boiling water over them or place in a water bath for about five minutes. Dry on a towel and add to cottage cheese. You can roll the raisins in flour and then mix with the curd mass.
- Mix everything thoroughly to form a moderately thick curd dough from which you can make cheesecakes.
- Sift a handful of flour onto a table or cutting board. Take a tablespoon of cottage cheese and roll in flour.
- We form round, plump flat cakes - blanks for future cheesecakes.
- Pour oil into a frying pan and heat it up. Reduce the heat, making it lower than medium so that the cheesecakes are fried and do not burn. Place the cakes at a distance from one another. Fry on one side and the other until evenly browned.
- Serve cheesecakes made from curd mass warm or cooled, choosing additives to suit your taste. You can top the cheesecakes with condensed milk or sour cream with sugar, jam syrup, honey, and serve with whipped cream and berry sauce. Bon appetit!
Poppy pie
This pie can be compared to the famous cheesecake. It also has a sandy base and a delicate, creamy filling. But poppy seeds give the pie a unique piquancy.
- Flour 300 g
- Butter 140 g
- Sugar 100 g
For filling:
- Cottage cheese 250 g
- Semolina 150 g
- Milk 700 g
- Butter 100 g
- Sugar 150 g
- Egg 1 pc.
- Poppy 150 g
- Vanillin 0.25 tsp.
First you need to prepare the base for the pie. Sift the flour through a sieve. Add sugar and butter cut into small pieces. The oil should be cold. Grind everything into fine crumbs. Line a springform pan with parchment paper; a pan with a diameter of 24 centimeters is suitable. Place most of the dough into it and compact it well throughout the entire pan, forming sides. Place in the refrigerator for an hour.
At this time, prepare the filling. Boil milk, butter and sugar in a saucepan, stirring constantly. As soon as the mixture boils, remove from heat. Add semolina and poppy seeds, mix well and leave on the table for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the mixture is infusing, beat the cottage cheese, egg and vanilla in a blender. Combine both masses in one bowl and mix well. Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator, place it on top of the mixture, and smooth out the filling. Sprinkle the remaining dough crumbs on top of the pie. Bake for about an hour in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. The poppy seed cake must be cooled before serving.
Recipe 2: cheesecakes made from curd mass
We suggest you try making cheesecakes from curd mass, the recipe with step-by-step photos is given below. Thanks to their composition, cheesecakes turn out to be very tender, and the addition of raisins makes them also healthy. After all, raisins contain boron, a rare microelement that ensures complete absorption of calcium, as well as a whole complex of useful vitamins and microelements. The gentle technology of cooking in the oven makes these cheesecakes suitable for children's and diet food.
- 230 g (1 pack) sweet curd mass;
- 1 egg;
- 3 table. spoons of raisins;
- 2 table. spoons of wheat flour.
Preparation
- Rinse the raisins in hot water (60-70 degrees), then soak in warm boiled water for 20-30 minutes. Drain the raisins in a colander, rinse again and dry a little.
- This method of preparing raisins will allow you to remove not only dirt from them (since grapes are usually not washed before drying so that they do not spoil), but also organic oils, wax or paraffin, which are used to treat raisins to avoid sticking of the berries.
- Beat the egg and mix it with the sweet curd mass (if desired, you can add a pinch of salt and vanilla). Add sifted flour, prepared raisins and mix everything well.
- You can buy curd mass, which already contains raisins, then you don’t have to add raisins separately, or instead of three spoons, take one or two, it all depends on your taste and the presence of raisins.
- Instead of wheat flour, you can use semolina. Cheesecakes made from curd mass with semolina are more crumbly. It is important to remember that after adding semolina, the curd mass should stand for about 20 minutes so that the semolina swells well.
- When the curd dough is completely ready, you need to heat the oven to 180 degrees and start making cheesecakes. The dough for cheesecakes from the curd mass turns out to be quite liquid in consistency, so it is better to abandon the traditional method of making cheesecakes (forming a curd ball and dipping it in flour), and use muffin tins. Such molds need to be filled halfway with curd mass (for this it is convenient to use two spoons - one to scoop the dough, and the other to help put the dough into the mold).
- Place the molds on a baking sheet and place in the oven. It is advisable to place the baking tray on the highest level of the oven. The cheesecakes will be ready in about 20 minutes, but if you want them to brown, then keep them in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Cheesecakes made from curd mass with raisins, the recipe with photos of which is outlined step by step above, are ready. They can be served with tea, milk, kefir or yogurt.
- Also try making cheesecakes from curd mass with dried apricots. To do this, just take 6-8 pieces of dried apricots and prepare them in the same way as raisins. Before adding dried apricots to the dough, finely chop them.
We wish everyone bon appetit!

- 1 egg;
- 2 tablespoons flour.

Then drain the water, rinse the raisins again and dry well, placing them on paper towels. It is recommended to sprinkle dry raisins with flour before adding them to the dough. This will allow the raisins to be evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Advice! If you bought curd mass without additives (for example, vanilla), then you can additionally add raisins to the dough.
- Grind the curd mass in a bowl, add a raw egg and knead. Add prepared raisins (if they were not in the curd mixture initially). Add sifted flour. Mix.
- Preheat the oven. Place muffin tins on a baking sheet. Fill them with curd dough so that they are filled to half the volume. The option of baking in molds is recommended because the dough turns out runny.
- And if you just put the dough on a baking sheet, the cheesecakes will spread. It is not recommended to add more flour; the cheesecakes will turn out tough. Bake at 180 degrees for 20-30 minutes, they should be slightly browned.

Cheesecakes made from curd mass with raisins according to a quick recipe
Do you like cheesecakes with raisins? There is nothing easier than preparing them from curd mass with its addition. Raisins do not need to be purchased and prepared in advance - soaked and dried, which saves time usually spent on preliminary preparation.
Ingredients :

- one egg;
- sugar, refined - two tablespoons;
- half a glass of flour;
- oil for frying.
Preparation
- In a small bowl, whisk the egg until smooth.
- Place the curd mass into a mixing bowl. Usually, to get tender cheesecakes, you have to rub the cottage cheese through a sieve; the curd mass does not need this. It is already tender and does not contain grains.
- Add sugar to the cottage cheese and mix thoroughly, adding the scrambled egg in parts, then, also in parts, add a couple of tablespoons of flour. At the end of this stage, you should have a dough that feels like plasticine to the touch.
- Pour flour into a small but spacious container. Heat the oil in a frying pan; there should be no more than what is needed to just cover the bottom a little. You can take only butter fat or a mixture of it with vegetable fat.
- Spoon some of the curd dough into the flour and, lightly sprinkling it, form flat cakes about a centimeter thick. Place the pieces in hot oil and fry until evenly browned on both sides.
With apples
Ingredients: 320 g of cottage cheese of any fat content, chicken egg, large apple, 2-3 tbsp. granulated sugar, a pinch of vanillin, 3 tbsp. high-grade wheat flour.

- All remaining dry ingredients are poured into the mixture. You can add nutmeg or cinnamon for flavor.
All that remains is to fashion the cheesecakes and fry them on both sides in a mixture of sunflower and butter.
