The most delicious Easter with raisins

The most delicious Easter recipe

I got this recipe a long time ago in a handwritten version, when I was not yet skilled at working with yeast dough. And to my surprise, the Easter cakes came out the first time, and they came out so good that no home-made, let alone store-bought, Easter cakes could match their taste. This recipe makes 4-5 medium ramekins. Easter cakes turn out to be very tender, airy and slightly moist on the inside - just like perfect Easter cakes should be. The main thing is to knead correctly and not miss 3 crimps of the dough. The manufacturing process is very similar to this recipe for Easter cake, only slightly simpler and the Easter cakes turn out to be the most loose and tender.

Update in accordance with the comments: the amount of yeast can vary from 3 to five or six measured teaspoons, one spoon contains 4 grams. If you don't have experience working with paskas and yeast dough, feel free to use 5 teaspoons. Yes, and you can’t overdo it with yeast, so that the cakes don’t get a nasty yeasty smell.

Ingredients:

0.5 l. milk;
about 0.5 kg of flour (we will look at the mixture);
1 tbsp. Sahara;
1 tbsp. vegetable oil without aroma;
3 eggs (1 white for glaze, the rest for dough);
3-5 tsp dry yeast;
200 g raisins;
1 tbsp. with a heap of sour cream;
a pinch of vanillin or 1 sachet of vanilla sugar;
a pinch of salt;
2-3 tbsp. sweet powder;
powder for Easter.

Easter recipe with raisins

1. Preparing the dough for Easter

Heat the milk to 30-40 degrees (it should be warm, but not hot, pleasant for the yeast). It is better to take a glass or enamel container. Pour the yeast into the milk and mix thoroughly until the yeast dissolves.

Add 1 tbsp. flour and 2 tbsp. Sahara. Mix. Rub the lumps with your hands until a homogeneous mass is formed. At this step I usually add a couple of drops of holy water. They also say that the dough loves traditional music and is not in a bad mood, so let’s start getting ready for the holiday :).

Cover the container with the dough with a towel or cling film and place in a warm space for 1 hour. In such cases, I place a bowl of dough or dough on a stool next to the heater or radiator. If you bake something in the oven, you can put it in the kitchen, for example, on the hood.

2. Prepare the necessary ingredients

We wash the raisins and soak them in hot water.

Separate the whites from the yolks, pour 1 white for the glaze into a mug and put it in the refrigerator.

Grind the yolks with sugar, add 1 tbsp. sour cream, mix.

3. Preparing the dough for Easter

When the dough has risen perfectly, transfer it to a warm pan. Pay attention to the step-by-step photo; the dough should increase 2-3 times in volume and be covered with bubbles on top. From time to time it happens that the yeast did not work well and the dough did not rise or grew quite slightly. This may be due to the fact that the food was very cool or hot, or the yeast itself was stored incorrectly. In this case, it is better to prepare a new dough using the remaining yeast (preferably from another manufacturer). Sometimes it’s better to pour out the dough than to ruin the whole baked goods.

First, add 3 cups of flour, add the yolks mashed with sugar and begin to knead the dough. Add salt - it increases the taste of the baked goods. Add vanillin. The mixture should make the dough a little thicker than for a sponge cake and without lumps. Add more flour as needed. Kneading the dough is the longest step, usually taking 30-40 minutes, so get comfortable. At the same time, your hands must be warm so that the yeast continues to do its work.

When the mass becomes homogeneous and without lumps, it’s time to add vegetable oil. Continue kneading the dough.

Leave the dough for a few minutes while we beat 2 egg whites with a mixer into a fluffy foam.

Add the whites to the dough and knead the dough again. The finished dough should become soft, elastic and slightly lag behind your hands and pan.

Dry the raisins on a cardboard towel and roll them in flour to prevent them from sticking when baking. Add a little vegetable oil to your hands and rub. Pour raisins into the dough and mix gently with your hands 2-3 times.

Cover the pan with a towel and let the dough rise in a warm space. After about 1-1.5 hours, knead the dough with your hands dipped in vegetable oil. Repeat the function after another 1-1.5 hours.

Sprinkle the molds with flour. We spread the dough to approximately half the height of the molds. Place in a warm place again for 30 minutes until the dough rises to the edges of the molds.

Place the risen eggs in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for approximately 40 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick. If after piercing the toothpick remains clean, the Easter eggs are ready.

4. Preparing glaze for paskas

We take the separated protein out of the refrigerator and begin to beat with a mixer at low speed. Add the sweet powder and continue beating with the mixer at low speed until peaks form.

We take the Easter cakes out of the molds, grease the top with glaze and immediately sprinkle with the prepared powder. Leave the beads until the glaze hardens (at least 1 hour). That's all. Our most delicious Easter is ready! Bon appetit and happy bright holiday!

Easter recipe: ingredients, tips

When is Easter 2020 celebrated? This year for Eastern Christians the holiday falls on April 19, so you can safely begin preparations. Buy the required ingredients in advance, select the decorations for the Easter cake that you like. Don’t forget other recipes for Easter, such as meatloaf. Also, colored eggs are usually served on the holiday - the second main attribute of Easter.

The most delicious Easter cake: a recipe with step-by-step description

There are various Easter recipes. One of the most favorite is cottage cheese cake. It has long been served to the table, making it the main dish. We will look at the usual recipe for Easter in the oven. It is prepared using yeast dough, so it comes out breathtakingly tender, slightly moisturized inside and airy.

What ingredients will be useful to bring to life the recipe for the most delicious Easter? The list of goods for 4–5 medium-sized bees is as follows:

milk - 0.5 l;
flour - 0.5 kg;
sugar - 4-5 glasses;
vegetable oil - 150 ml;
eggs - 3 pcs.;
live yeast - 50 g, dry yeast - 5 tsp;
raisins - 200 g;
sour cream - 1 tbsp. l.;
vanilla sugar - 10 g;
salt - a pinch;
sweet powder - 3 tbsp. l.

What is this recipe for a delicious Easter? In order for the dish to turn out perfect, you need to prepare the dough for Easter responsibly. It is made on dough using a huge amount of eggs and fat. This is precisely why Easter cake dough matures longer than regular yeast dough. Despite the fact that we have the usual Easter recipe, remember that there is no need to rush, then the result will live up to expectations.

When choosing ingredients for a dish, pay special attention to flour. Take a proven, premium product. Another important component is yeast. It’s better to take them alive: with them, Easter baking will be the lightest and most airy.

A delicious Easter recipe certainly contains spices. But don’t forget that there doesn’t have to be a lot of them, they are used only to highlight the taste of the dish. An excess amount of spices can be detrimental and spoil the Easter cake.

I recommend adding a few grams of cardamom, vanilla sugar, nutmeg or cloves. The choice of spice is directly related to what you like specifically. From time to time I add citrus zest to the dough, then Easter gets a pleasant smell and a slightly sour aftertaste.

Not a single Easter recipe is complete without decorations. Usually the dish is decorated with a glaze of protein and sugar. But there are other options:

caramel;
chocolate;
gelatinous.

Glaze is used not only to give the cake a pleasant appearance. It also helps keep food fresh for Easter. Choose the one that suits you specifically.

At the same time, do not forget that you only need to cover the glaze with completely cooled Easter. There are also subtleties in this process. Since the Easter cake dough is dense, it takes a lot of time. Haste in this matter is the main enemy.

Let's figure out how to properly cool the cake:

Remove from the oven and wrap Easter in a towel.
Lay on your side.
Roll occasionally so that the cake cools moderately.
Be patient and wait about 3-4 hours. During this period of time, Easter will completely cool down inside and will remain fresh for a long time.

To make the Easter table look very festive, one decoration made of glaze is not enough. The most common option is various sweet toppings. There are a huge number of options for this decoration in different colors, shapes and sizes. The only thing you will need is the ability to connect them together.

Also, baked goods for Easter can be decorated with the following decor:

candied fruit;
seeds and nuts;
meringue;
mastic;
chocolate.

Choose what you like specifically for you.

Here comes a delicious Easter, which will make the holiday even brighter and more cheerful. Following the usual instructions, any housewife will be able to prepare wonderful Easter cakes. The main thing is to create it with love and a good mood.

Curd Easter: a recipe for a wonderful holiday!

Hi all! Vika Leping is with you, and now I will tell you how to prepare cottage cheese Easter, the recipe for which is very simple and indescribably delicious. In fact, I already posted it a year earlier, but at the moment I decided to slightly update and supplement it, and at the same time remind you how to make Easter from cottage cheese! Ceremonial dishes are always very tasty and long-awaited.

Curd Easter or Paska is a wonderfully delicious dessert that is eaten on the wonderful holiday of Easter, which will come very soon, and specifically on this Sunday. On this occasion, I’m posting the Easter recipe from cottage cheese early so that you have time to prepare and purchase all the ingredients. To be honest, I completely forgot that the holiday would be this weekend, and it also coincided with May 1, which completely shocked me. Do you often forget about the rapid passage of time?

This Easter from cottage cheese with raisins was always prepared by my mother, it is indescribably tasty and tender. Raisins can be replaced with candied fruits and other dried fruits. In Ukraine, such a dish may be called cheese Easter. And this is not because it is made from the usual cheese. And therefore, “cheese” translated from Ukrainian means “cottage cheese”. That’s why you get confused from time to time when you buy, for example, dumplings with cheese, but they turn out (always, in fact) with cottage cheese

Ingredients

cottage cheese – 400 g (fat, dry)
butter – 75 g
sour cream – 150 g (homemade)
nuts – 75 gr
raisins – or candied fruits – 70 g
sugar – powder – 130 g

Manufacturing method

Making Easter from cottage cheese is not difficult. And my usual Easter recipe with photos and step-by-step annotations will help you with this. To make it tender and airy, you need to grind the cottage cheese through a sieve. But, unfortunately, I don’t have a strainer, so, after a little thought, I bought cottage cheese, from which I usually make my own, dare I say it, impeccable cheesecakes . These, by the way, are the most delicious and ordinary cheesecakes that I have ever made, I am very proud of this recipe, be sure to try to cook it, later you will not be allowed to pull your ears!

This kind of cottage cheese, like for cheesecakes, is homemade, you don’t need to grind it, the cheesecakes turn out magical anyway. That’s why I advise you to take dry cottage cheese, which sticks together very well, without lumps. It is usually sold in the market in the form of huge pieces of curd mass. Place this cottage cheese in a deep plate and knead well. If you can’t find it, you can grind another one in a blender. Then take butter at room temperature and grate it on a small grater directly into the cottage cheese. Mix everything well. Easter recipes are always quite high in calories, but on this holiday you can treat yourself to some delicious food! Especially those who were fasting.

Add sweet powder to the consistency, then sour cream and mix again until smooth. Instead of sweet powder, you can put fructose, only in less quantity, it is sweeter, then the curd Paska will be available to diabetics, and it will simply become much healthier.

Now let's take the nuts. I love cashews the most, which is why I used them, although Easter recipes usually contain walnuts or almonds. But, of course, you can take any that you like best. We put them in a bag and start crushing them with something hard and blunt, I did this with the handle of a knife. You don’t have to put in any special effort; the cashews will fall apart on their own.

Add crushed nuts to the mixture, then raisins or candied fruits, and then mix thoroughly again. If your raisins are dry, you can pour boiling water over them for 10 minutes, then blot them with a napkin and add them to the Easter dish. The recipe for cottage cheese Easter with raisins is considered the most traditional, but with candied fruits it is also very tasty.

Easter cottage cheese (it is also called royal from time to time) is almost ready. We take a pan, put a colander in it, and put a large piece of gauze on top, folded in 2-3 layers. Place the curd mixture on cheesecloth and smooth the surface.

We wrap the ends of the gauze, put a small plate on top so that it presses on the cottage cheese, and on it - a heavy object weighing about 1 kg. This could be a bottle of water or a can of canned vegetables, for example. We put the system in the refrigerator for a day. Now you understand how to create Easter from cottage cheese!

The Easter cottage cheese sutra on Sunday is completely ready. Solemnly in the morning we take it out of the refrigerator, disassemble the system, carefully remove it from the gauze and place it with the rounded side up on a plate.

The Easter cottage cheese top is decorated with raisins, nuts or candied fruits - whatever you prefer.

That's it, the Easter cottage cheese recipe has come to an end. Let me summarize.

Laconic recipe: Easter cottage cheese with raisins and nuts

Carefully knead the cottage cheese with a fork, grind through a sieve or grind with a blender.
Grate room temperature butter into the cottage cheese on a small grater, add sweet powder or fructose, sour cream and mix thoroughly.
We put the nuts in a bag and crush them into medium-sized pieces using a flat object or a rolling pin.
If the raisins are very dry, soak them in boiling water for 10 minutes, then blot them with a napkin.
Add raisins or candied fruits and nuts to the rest of the ingredients and mix everything again.
We put the colander in a larger pan, cover it with gauze folded in 3 layers and put the curd mass inside, fold the edges of the gauze at the top, put a small plate on top, and on it any object weighing 1 kg.
We put the system containing the future Easter cottage cheese with raisins and nuts in the refrigerator overnight (that is, in the dark) .
In the morning, take it out of the refrigerator, disassemble the tower, open the gauze and carefully transfer the cottage cheese Paska onto a plate, flat side down.
The cottage cheese Easter is ready, decorate the top with raisins, candied fruits or nuts.

8 best cottage cheese Easter recipes

The most delicious traditional desserts with and without eggs and unusual options with condensed milk, chocolate, gelatin and cherries.

Secrets of a delicious cottage cheese Easter

To make Easter, use full-fat cottage cheese. The standard is homemade.
If the cottage cheese is very dry, first grind it through a sieve (preferably twice) or punch it with a blender.
Raisins are most often used as a filling for Easter. You can also add other chopped dried fruits, candied fruits, any chopped nuts, grated citrus zest. Dried fruits must be soaked in hot water for 10 minutes in advance, squeezed and dried. Determine the amount of filler according to your own taste.
Cottage cheese Easter is made in a special form - pasochnitsa. It must be covered with two layers of gauze and placed on a plate with a huge hole facing up. The prepared curd mass is placed inside the mold.
If you don’t have a bean bag, you can use a plastic bucket with several holes in the bottom or an ordinary colander.
Fold the upper edges of the gauze and place something heavy on top, for example a jar of water. To set, Easter must stand under pressure in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours. You can casually leave her there for a whole day or even two. Whey will flow evenly into the plate through the lower holes, which must be drained from time to time.

Carefully turn the finished Easter over onto a serving plate and decorate with dried fruits, candied fruits, nuts or confectionery sprinkles.
