Fragrant cottage cheese balls

Step-by-step recipe:

Step 1:

Weigh the cottage cheese. Place the bowl on the scale, zero it out, and add 360 g of cottage cheese.

Step 2:

Add butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, baking powder, and egg. Mix until smooth.

Step 3:

Sprinkle a little flour onto a board. Pinch off portions of the dough and roll them into balls.

Step 4:

Place the donuts on parchment paper in an air fryer pan or basket, leaving space between them.

Step 5:

Bake at 130°C for 10 minutes. The curd donuts should be lightly golden when finished.

Step 6:

Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with tea.

Cooking tips:

Use medium-fat cottage cheese - it will give the desired density and taste.

If the dough is sticky, lightly oil your hands or add a little flour.

Do not increase the temperature above 130°C - the donuts may burn on the outside and remain raw on the inside.
