Bread Crumb Dessert 

4 servings 

  • 300g fresh black rye bread 
  • 30g butter 
  • 100g sugar 
  • 2 tsp. cinnamon 
  • 300g lean cottage cheese 
  • 200g 30% fat sour cream

Cut the bread into slices, rip them into pieces and rub them with your fingers including the crust into crumbs. 

Melt the butter in a large frying pan, add crumbs, add 50 grams of sugar and cinnamon. Stir and fry for 5 minutes while constantly stirring. Take the pan of the heat and leave to cool. 

Run cottage cheese through a sieve. Beat it with sour cream, remaining sugar and vanilla sugar in a large bowl. 

Layer the dessert in glasses or little jars: pour a layer of crumbs, add a layer of cheese mixture and a layer of jam. The top layer should be the cheese mixture. 

If using jars, screw the tops on, if glasses – cover them with a cling film. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or preferably overnight. 

This dessert is delicious both refrigerated and at room temperature. Keep refrigerated and consume within three days.
