For 14 portions

Ingredients

Dough:

4 eggs
150 g granulated sugar
100 ml oil
100 ml milk
250 g plain flour
1/2 packet baking powder

Filling:

250 g soft cottage cheese
grated zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons baby semolina
peach compote (cut into smaller pieces)

Preparation procedure

Preparing the batter: In a bowl beat the whole eggs with the sugar until pale and frothy. Add the oil, milk and beat briefly again.
Stir in the sifted plain flour combined with the baking powder. A smooth, semi-liquid batter will form.
Pour the prepared batter onto a baking tray (25×30 cm) lined with baking paper.
Cottage cheese filling: Mix the cottage cheese, lemon zest, sugar and semolina. Using a small spoon, create cottage cheese dollops on the batter evenly across the surface.
Adding the peaches: Drain the canned peaches, cut into smaller pieces and place them between the cottage cheese dollops, gently pressing them into the batter.
Baking: Place into a preheated oven at 180 °C and bake for about 30 minutes, until the cake turns golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
After baking let the cake cool, dust with powdered sugar and cut into squares.
