“In a hurry” recipes have long become one of the most favorite for modern housewives, because the modern rhythm of life does not allow us to spend a lot of time on cooking, especially when it comes to baking. But you really want to pamper your family with something delicious, homemade! Curd pie with crumbs is one of those options for the preparation of which we will spend a minimum of time and effort, and the result exceeds all our expectations. Still don't know his recipe? We will be happy to share!

Classic cottage cheese pie

As a rule, during the preparation of a recipe, each cook adds something of his own to the recipe, adding personality to the dish. And over time, it changes so much that it is almost impossible to return to the origins. If we talk about cottage cheese pie, some people make it with the addition of berries, fill it with fruit jelly after baking, add citrus fruits, jam or pieces of fruit and berries to the filling.

We offer you the original version of the recipe, which you can change according to your own taste.

Ingredients for the dough:

Flour – 2-3 cups;
Butter – 1 package;
Sugar – ½ cup;
Soda – 1 teaspoon.

Filling ingredients:

Cottage cheese – 300-400 grams;
Egg – 1 piece;
Vanillin – 1 package (to taste);
Sugar – 1 glass.

Preparing a crumble pie with cottage cheese according to the recipe is not difficult in principle, but for your confidence we have detailed the step-by-step process:

The first thing you need to do in the kitchen when planning to bake is to turn on the oven. Since the ingredients for the pie are prepared quite quickly, this time is quite enough for it to warm up thoroughly. So, set the temperature to 200-220 degrees (it all depends on your oven) and start cooking.
We freeze the butter in the freezer, this will make it much easier to knead into crumbs.
Grate the frozen butter.
Sift the flour and mix with soda or baking powder.
Mix butter, sugar and a mixture of soda and flour in one bowl, then knead the crumbs by hand. Please note that our task is not to knead the classic shortbread dough, but to leave it in the consistency of crumbs. We put everything in the refrigerator, since both shortbread dough and shortbread crumbs do not like heat.
Now let's start preparing the filling. Here the algorithm will depend primarily on your taste and on which version of cottage cheese you prefer. If this is a curd mass that initially has a homogeneous consistency, then you can immediately begin mixing. For grainy cottage cheese, if you don’t like this structure, you will have to grind it through a sieve or pass it through a meat grinder. If you want to maintain the graininess, you will have to knead the filling very, very carefully.
Having decided on the texture of the filling, we begin to combine all the ingredients. It is better to beat the egg separately with sugar until thick foam, then just add this sweet mixture to the curd mass and stir.
Preparing the form. It is advisable to first grease a regular mold with a small piece of butter; with a silicone mold, such manipulations are not at all necessary.
We divide the crumbs in half, since we will lay them out in two layers. The first layer is flour crumbs, the second will be the curd-egg mass, which must be evenly distributed throughout the entire mold. The last layer is the remains of the crumbs. We try to distribute them so that they completely cover the cottage cheese.
We put everything in the oven. On average, a cottage cheese pie with crumbs is baked for about 20 minutes, but it is better to focus on its condition than on the recommended time, because different ovens can work completely differently. In this case, a golden brown crust does not always indicate readiness, since the readiness of the filling is of great importance here. If the crust is already ready, take out the baked goods and check the consistency: shake a little. The finished treat will not “shudder”. If it remains a little liquid, you need to reduce the baking temperature and send the cake again for another 10 minutes.

Try not to remove the baked goods from the pan until completely cooled, as it may break. It is also better to serve it already cooled, because hot cottage cheese can seriously burn you. How to submit? As your heart desires! You can simply cut it into segments and present it with a cup of tea, or you can feel like a real artist and create a mini-masterpiece on a plate. Decorate it with fruit sauce, pieces of colorful jelly or jam, and sprinkle with powdered sugar on top. The final touch is a mint leaf. Believe me, no one will even guess that under all this beauty there is hidden the most ordinary cottage cheese pie with shortbread crumbs.

Pie with margarine

As you know, both butter and margarine are equally suitable for shortbread dough. Moreover, the latter makes baking much more budget-friendly, because the cost of these products differs significantly. That’s why we decided to offer you a recipe for a cheaper delicacy:

Flour 3 cups;
Margarine – 1 pack (200-250 grams);
Soda 12; teaspoon (can be replaced with 1 teaspoon baking powder);
Cottage cheese 400 grams;
Egg 1 piece;
Sugar 1 glass.

Now let's start preparing the pie with margarine:

There is no need to freeze margarine, just keeping it cold is enough.
Sift the flour and mix with soda, pour it onto the prepared surface in a heap. It will be much more convenient to knead the crumbs on the table rather than in a bowl.
Place the chilled margarine in the center of the mound and chop it into small pieces with a knife. When the margarine is fine enough, you can continue kneading with your hands. The main thing is not to overdo it and not turn the crumbs into a full-fledged dough. You can add sugar to the mixture, but we did not include it in the recipe, since many people find the combination of sweet dough and the same filling very cloying. Divide the resulting amount of crumbs into approximately two equal parts and place them in the refrigerator while we prepare the filling.
Turn on the oven and start preparing the filling. Beat the egg with sugar in a separate bowl. If you feel that one egg is not enough for this amount of cottage cheese, you can add another one, because, as they say, you can’t spoil porridge with oil.
Give the cottage cheese a homogeneous structure using a blender or meat grinder and add to the egg mixture. Bring until smooth again. That's it, the filling is ready. It's time to start shaping the pie.
A springform pan is most suitable for baking, since then there are no problems with taking it out. Grease the pan with a small amount of margarine or cover the bottom with parchment. Lay out the crumbs as the first layer. If you are very confused by its porous structure, you can press it down a little with your fingers. Then pour in the curd and egg mixture and smooth out thoroughly. The last layer is the second part of the crumb. We try to completely cover the top with it.

Now we send our workpiece to the oven, which has warmed up by that time. The baked goods will be ready in about 20-30 minutes, but after about 15 minutes, start watching the top. A feature of some ovens is that the top layer of the pie begins to burn, while the middle is not baked well enough.

Therefore, if you see a watery structure of the pie itself when the crust is golden brown, slightly reduce the baking degree. Some chefs also recommend covering the baked goods with parchment or a sheet of paper on top (however, this is not advisable if the pan is located in close proximity to a heat source). It is advisable to serve it cooled.

Our family really loves baking from shortbread dough, so I bake a lot of shortbread pies with different fillings. But when it’s time for berries, this is the recipe that all relatives prefer and it supersedes all others. This shortbread pie can be made with any berries: cherries, strawberries, blueberries, currants (black and red), plums, blackberries, cinnamon apple (finely chopped and pre-toasted with cinnamon in a frying pan). Notice how easy it is to prepare! There is no need to knead anything, just rub the ingredients for the dough between your fingers.

Ingredients

To make a shortbread pie you will need:

For the test:

300 g wheat flour;

200 g butter at room temperature;

100 g powdered sugar (fine sugar).

For filling:

500 g pitted cherries (fresh or frozen);

40 g cane sugar (you can safely use regular sugar);

4 tbsp. l. potato starch;

3 tbsp. l. ground vanilla crackers.

* Mold with a diameter of 23 cm.

Cooking steps

To prepare the crumbs, take flour, powdered sugar and butter at room temperature.

Place about half of the crumbs in a lightly buttered pan and press lightly with your hands to form an even layer.

Place in the oven to brown for 15 minutes, preheated to 180 degrees.

Take out the crust and sprinkle evenly with ground breadcrumbs. Rusks can be grated on a fine grater.

Let's prepare the filling. If you use frozen cherries, be sure to let the juice drain. Add starch and sugar to the cherries and mix gently.

We spread the filling onto our crust, sprinkled with breadcrumbs.

Sprinkle the remaining crumbs on top, just sprinkle it, no need to press hard and level it. The top of the pie should be loose.

Cherry crumb cake is ready. We enjoy the result!

Bon appetit!

Shortbread pie with jam is the simplest baking option that even an inexperienced cook can easily handle. This dessert also makes it onto the budget list. It consists of the simplest available and inexpensive products. Jam for filling can be used even in candied form.

The most popular recipe for shortbread pie with jam and crumbs on top is the classic grated, or “torn” version. Besides him, there are others.

The dough crumble on top of the pie adds a delicious crispy crust. And the jam filling always turns out tender and sweet.

If you are already tired of the classic version of the treat, you can experiment with its variations. For example, add nuts, sour cream, fresh fruits/berries and other delicious ingredients to the dessert.

“Torn” pie (classic recipe)

This pie turns out delicious the first time. This is a great baking option for a novice housewife.

Ingredients:

chicken eggs - 3 pcs.;
first-grade wheat flour - 3 tbsp.;
butter or margarine - 1 pack (250 g);
granulated sugar - 1 tbsp.;
baking soda, slaked with lemon juice - 0.5 tsp;
apricot jam - 2/3 tbsp.

Preparation:

If apricot jam is prepared in large pieces, then for this recipe you should first grind it with a blender or at least grind it with a fork. Serve the pie cooled.

Sour cream pie with jam

The pie with sour cream dough turns out soft and tender. It is better to take a dairy product of medium fat content - not too thick. Sour cream, which has already begun to slightly sour, is also suitable as a base for the pie.

Ingredients:

butter - 200 g;
chicken egg - 2 pcs.;
sugar - 150 g;
sour cream - 150 g;
soda - 1 tsp;
flour - 300 g;

2. Add the remaining bulk components to the base for the future dough. Pre-sieve the flour and soda a couple of times from a high distance. Add sour cream to the mixture. Repeat mixing.
3. The bowl should have an elastic and soft dough that is easy to work with. It needs to be divided into two approximately equal parts. One of them should be placed in the freezer for about half an hour. The second must be immediately distributed over an oiled baking sheet with high sides. You can roll it out with a rolling pin, but it’s convenient to just knead the dough with slightly damp hands.
4. You need to distribute the selected currant jam on top. Its layer should not be too thick. The already frozen part of the dough should be crushed using a grater with the largest divisions and distributed on top of the spread jam.
5. It is necessary to preheat the oven to +170...+175 degrees in advance. Place the baking sheet with the future pie into it. Bake the treat for about an hour. During this time, the pie with currant jam should be covered with a golden, delicious crust on top.

The finished delicacy needs to be cooled and cut into portions. Plum and apple jam also goes well with the dough from this recipe.

Secrets and tricks of making dessert

The pie filling includes berry/fruit jam. You can choose any according to your taste. Peach, apricot, and strawberry make the dessert very sweet. And currant and cranberry give a pleasant sourness.

If the jam is liquid, then it is worth decanting some of the syrup from it. Otherwise, the filling will ooze out the sides of the pie and make the bottom too soggy. You can avoid this by rubbing a little potato/corn starch onto the base.

There are other secrets to making a delicious pie:

Baking powder can be replaced with regular baking soda. To neutralize its taste in baked goods, you need to quench the dry product with lemon juice.
Do not put a pie with shortcrust pastry in a cold oven. Otherwise, its base will turn out to be hard, and the filling will spread heavily over the surface. You should always set the temperature specified in the recipe in advance and wait until the oven warms up well.
If you want to get a tender, soft pie, then you need to remove it as soon as the dough stops sticking to the wooden splinter. For crispy baked goods, you will need to keep the treat in the oven longer.

Why shortbread pie with jam may not work out

There are several typical mistakes that housewives often make when preparing shortbread pie filled with jam, even following step-by-step, understandable recipes. They lead to the fact that the dry sweet cake has to be thrown away. What not to do:

Use butter/margarine that does not freeze easily. Usually, non-domestic products are easily spread on bread even after several hours in the freezer. Such butter or margarine absorbs too much flour, resulting in a dry and hard base.
Roll or rub the dough slowly and for a long time. It should not have time to warm up from the warmth of your hands.
Measure the amount of basic bulk products with a glass. It is best to use scales. Not every cook knows that only 160 g of flour fits into a 250 ml glass.

Today I wanted to make shortbread pie with jam and crumbs on top, so I decided to use my favorite recipe and share it with you. I have butter in the ingredients, but in principle you can replace it with margarine, although in the first case it tastes better.

I use a classic recipe for shortcrust pastry for a pie, which has never let me down and it turns out really tasty and easier to prepare than others. There are a minimum number of ingredients, and they are all very simple. Also, there is no need for sour cream or kefir.

This recipe for shortbread pie with jam and crumbs can be made with any jam or preserves. I decided to add apricot, and for homogeneity I additionally blended it in a blender. The classic recipe for grated pie will come in handy if you need something tasty to make for tea. Even guests are not ashamed to serve this on the table.

In fact, this jam pie is made quickly and easily, so I’m sure that any housewife can definitely make it. I also recommend seeing how easily you can decorate the top so as not to rub the dough and make it look more interesting.

Ingredients:

Chicken eggs – 2 pcs.
Sugar – 1 tbsp. (200 ml.)
Slaked soda – 0.5 tsp
Butter – 200 g
Wheat flour – 400 g
Apricot jam – 200 g

How to make grated pie with jam

So, first of all, I’ll show you how to make shortcrust pastry for a pie. Beat eggs into a mixer bowl and add sugar. I set the mixer to beat at medium speed, and at this time I melt the butter.

When about 3 minutes have passed and the mass has become fluffy, but not like thick foam, such a consistency is not needed, I add slaked soda and melted butter.

I stir and add the sifted flour. It is necessary to sift it in order to saturate it with oxygen and check for the presence of anything unnecessary in it.

First, I add only 100 grams of flour, and begin to knead it with a spatula, then another 100, and so on until I have poured it all out. As a result, the dough comes out soft, not dense, but I don’t recommend filling it with flour if you need delicate shortbread pastries.

Now about how to form a grated pie with jam. I divide the dough into 2 parts, but not equal, but large and small. For now I put the smaller one in the freezer in a bag.

I cover a baking sheet with parchment and place a large piece of dough on it, and then simply distribute it evenly with my hands to make it the same thickness everywhere. I don’t make sides, I don’t see the need for it.

Since I have grated shortbread with jam, namely apricot, but I only found jam, I simply pureed the required amount in a blender until smooth. Next, I distribute it evenly throughout the dough, just a little short of reaching the edges.

At this time, you can already turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees. I take the second part of the dough out of the freezer and grate it on a coarse grater, directly on top of the jam, but so that it is approximately even. I didn’t mix more flour into this piece and rubbed it like that, but I know that some people add flour to it to make it harder, because it froze just a little and it’s not very convenient to rub because of this. You do what is most convenient for you.

This is the simple and easy jam pie recipe I came up with. I bake it for about 20 minutes until golden brown.

Next, together with the parchment, I transfer it from the baking sheet to a cutting board and let it cool, after which I cut it into portions.

Its base turned out to be thin, which only makes it tastier.

This is the shortbread pie I have with jam and crumbs on top, I really like it, so I advise you to bake it. And as a filling you can take any jam and preserves, and it is better that it is not very sweet, but with a slight sourness. Enjoy your tea!
