Ingredients for 6 servings:

  • 150 g low-fat curd cheese
  • 150 g cheese, grated
  • 150 g basil pesto, homemade or from a jar
  • 2 m.-sized eggs

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Attention, calorie bomb! Enjoy in moderation!

Mix the quark with the cheese, eggs, and pesto until smooth, spread evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake at 180°C fan-assisted oven or 200°C conventional oven for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool slightly, then shape into the desired shape, roll, fold, and cut… It’s really child’s play! If you like it a little crispier, you can also place small blobs on the baking sheet; this will help the individual “cookies” bake more evenly. Warning: Very fatty and high in calories, but low in carbohydrates, making them suitable for a low-carb diet. Check the carbohydrate content of the pesto.
