Prep time: 60 min
Cook time: 60 min
Total time: 60 min
Yield: 8
Ingredients: 40 dkg semi-coarse flour; 12 dkg granulated sugar; 4 egg yolks; 12 dkg butter (room temperature); 2.4 dl milk; 1 packet of baking powder; 1 kg fruit (apricots or other seasonal fruit); 25 dkg lumpy quark; vanilla sugar; 4 egg whites; 10 dkg granulated sugar

Dough preparation: In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar and softened butter until frothy. Add the milk, sifted flour and baking powder. Mix everything well until a smooth dough forms. Spread the dough onto a baking sheet that you have greased and floured so the cake won't stick.

Filling preparation: Mix the quark with the vanilla sugar and stir gently. Cut the fruit (apricots or other seasonal fruit) into pieces and spread them evenly over the dough. Layer the prepared quark on top of the fruit.

Meringue preparation: Whip the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the meringue evenly over the top of the quark.

Baking the cake: Place the cake in a preheated oven at 180 °C and bake for about 30–40 minutes. Baking time depends on your oven, so it's best to check the cake with a toothpick. The top of the cake should be nicely baked and golden.
