Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake apples with cottage cheese in the oven? Prepare your food. Sweet and sour varieties are best suited for apples; Antonovka will be especially aromatic. Choose natural cottage cheese and sour cream, of any fat content, without milk fat substitutes. Also take high-quality and natural honey, it is better if it is liquid.

Step 2

Beat the cottage cheese in a blender to make the filling more tender and homogeneous.

Wash the apples and dry them. Cut off the top of the apple in the form of a lid, using a sharp small knife, carefully remove the pulp inside the fruit. Here you need to act carefully so as not to damage the walls of the apples, otherwise the juice and filling may leak out during baking.

Bake stuffed apples in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 30 minutes until soft. Baking time will depend on the density and size of the apples. Larger apples will take a little longer to cook.
