Cottage cheese bagels with apples

1. Cut the butter into pieces, put them in a fairly large bowl, add salt and sugar, mash with a fork.
2. Put the cottage cheese to the butter, mix well by hand or with a blender.
3. Sift flour, mix with baking powder. Enter it into the curd-oil mass.
4. Knead the dough until smooth, then divide it into two parts. Wrap each one in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

At this time, you can do the stuffing:

5. Wash the apples, cut out everything that is not needed, peel the peel.
6. Cut the apples into 8 equal slices, put them in a small container.
7. Pour lemon juice over the apple slices, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. If you are preparing a treat for children, you do not need to add cinnamon, and rub the apples on a coarse grater before mixing with lemon juice and sugar.

Time has passed - take out the dough, you can proceed to the final stage of making bagels:

8. Take out half of the dough, sprinkle it with flour and mash it with your hands. The dough should be plastic, obedient.
9. On the work surface, roll out the dough into a layer 0.5 cm thick .
10. Sprinkle the layer evenly with sugar.
11. Cut it into 6-8 triangles (like a cake.)
12. Place an apple slice on the wide edge of the triangle (or a spoonful of filling, if you chose to grate apples).
13. Wrap the filling in the dough, moving to the narrow edge of the triangle.
14. Do the same with the second half of the test. Act quickly so that the dough does not have time to dry out.
15. Cover the baking sheet with parchment, put the bagels on it at some distance from each other.
16. Place the baking sheet in a preheated 200 degree oven for 25-30 minutes (until ready and ruddy).
17. Sprinkle the finished bagels with powdered sugar.

Have a nice tea party!
