Calling cottage cheese dough a novelty in cooking would be an unforgivable mistake, because it is rather a “well-forgotten old”. It has been used for cooking for more than one century, but with the advent of yeast, everyone began to slowly forget about it, despite the fact that cooking it is both easier and faster. In its structure, it also practically does not differ. So why not make not boring cheesecakes, but fragrant donuts-pies with an incredible variety of fillings from cottage cheese waiting in the wings? We offer several options for you to choose from, which will serve as the basis for your favorite dishes.
Baking dough
There are a huge variety of dough options for making pies, but for some reason most of us are limited to only unleavened or yeast. However, many housewives, with all their desire, cannot overcome the complex science of creating yeast dough. Cottage cheese dough for pies in the oven is a great alternative to it. Dishes prepared on its basis are distinguished by a wonderful taste and magnificent shape, which is perfectly preserved after cooling.
Ingredients:
- Cottage cheese - 500 grams;
- Egg - 3 pieces (large, if small - then 4);
- Baking powder - 3 teaspoons;
- Sugar - 3 tablespoons;
- Vegetable oil - 1 cup (not to the brim);
- Flour - 700 grams;
- Salt - a pinch;
- Yolk - 1 for greasing pies.
Cooking method:
- Add eggs, salt and sugar to the thoroughly mashed cottage cheese, grind until the grains dissolve. It is most convenient to do this with a blender, so we get not only the same structure, but also an air mass.
- Add vegetable oil without stopping beating. When all the components are completely mixed, you can gradually add flour with baking powder added there in advance.
- Sufficiently thickened dough can be kneaded by hand. Despite its elasticity, the dough for pies can stick to your hands, this is quite normal.
- Having formed a homogeneous elastic ball, cover it with a clean napkin and give it time to “rest”. Typically, this takes a couple of hours.
- After that, it is completely ready for baking. All that remains for us to do is roll it into sausages and cut into equal pieces. From the latter we form pies.
The filling for them can be absolutely anything: from eggs with onions or meat, to fresh berries or jam. In order for them to acquire a golden crust, you must not forget to grease them with whipped yolk. The patties will take about 25 minutes to cook at 190 degrees (the choice of temperature depends on the characteristics of your stove).
Dough for fried pies
The advantage of cottage cheese dough in its versatility is a great option for both baking and fried pies with any filling. The potatoes left after dinner, rice porridge will be an excellent filling. And the ease of preparation will allow you to please your home with a lush and soft delicacy in the morning.
Ingredients:

- Sour cream - 3 tablespoons;
- Egg - 3 pieces;
- Sugar - 3 tablespoons;
- Soda - 1.5 teaspoons (quench with vinegar or lemon juice);
- Salt - a pinch;
- Flour - 3 cups.
Cooking method:
- Mix sour cream, sugar and eggs in one bowl and beat thoroughly into a homogeneous mixture.
- We extinguish the soda and, together with salt, add to the egg mixture.
- We send the well-mashed cottage cheese to the rest of the ingredients and mix.
- Lastly, add flour. We do this in small portions, because it will be much easier to knead. After pouring the last portion, knead for about 5 more minutes.
- The resulting curd dough for fried pies is divided into 3 parts, from which we form three sausages. Each should make about 15 pies.
You can start cooking right away. We just stretch it with our hands or roll out the dough, pour the filling there, and into the pan. Do not be discouraged if your household does not master such a number of goodies at dinner, because after lying down, these pies will become even softer and tastier. So on the second, and even on the third day, they will be as tasty as if they had just been removed from the pan.

To prepare the dough, cottage cheese can be used even a little sour. From sour cottage cheese, the dough will turn out more magnificent, the main thing is that it should not be too wet.

How to make cottage cheese dough for pies and donuts
If you do not have such a kitchen appliance as a blender, then before kneading the dough, you need to grind the cottage cheese through a sieve so that there are no grains. If you have a blender, immediately put the cottage cheese, eggs, sugar, vegetable oil into the bowl and beat everything until smooth.
Pour the resulting mass into a bowl, add soda and mix.
Now, you need to see if the dough has reacted well with soda. If the dough is actively bubbling and slightly increased in volume - this is just great, it means that there was enough acid in the curd to extinguish the soda. If there are very few bubbles, you need to add a tablespoon of vinegar to the dough and mix.
After that, we begin to add sifted flour to the curd dough for pies, literally, two or three tablespoons each. After adding each serving of flour, mix vigorously the dough.
At the stage when it has become thicker, you need to sprinkle flour on the table and continue kneading with your hands on the table.
In the process of kneading, so that the curd dough does not stick to your hands, it is better to periodically moisten your hands in a bowl of cold water. As a result, we got a small bun that needs to be wrapped with cling film and put in the freezer for half an hour. A simple and tasty cottage cheese dough mixed with soda is ready.
As you can see, it is not only very easy to knead, but also sculpting from soft and elastic curd dough is a pleasure. If necessary, it can be stored in the refrigerator in a plastic bag, but no more than two days.
