Apple – Cheesecake

Knead the ingredients for the shortcrust pastry until smooth, wrap in cling film and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Grease and crumble a 26 springform pan.

I canned the apples myself, boiled the apples dry - open the jar and pour the apples into a colander. Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff and set aside. Whip the egg yolks, sugar and butter / margarine until creamy. Stir in the quark and pudding powder. Finally, carefully fold in the stiffly beaten egg white.

Roll out the shortcrust pastry on a floured surface and place it in the springform pan with a 3 cm high rim. Spread a small part of the quark mixture on top. Place the apple halves on the quark and fill with the remaining quark mixture, smooth out and put in the oven. Bake at 180 ° C - fan-assisted - for approx. 50 minutes, then let the cake stand in the switched-off oven for approx. 10 minutes. Chopstick sample !!!

Take the cake out of the oven, let it cool down in the tin for 15 minutes, then take it out of the tin and let it cool down on a cake wire.
