Ingredients
  

Batter
  • 3 eggs
  • 200 g sugar
  • 200 g flour
  • 100 ml kefir
  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 1/3 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1-2 apples
Filling
  • 150 g cottage cheese
  • 100 g sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp sugar

Method
 

  1. In a separate container, mix the kefir with the baking soda and let stand for about 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the sugar for 7-10 minutes, until fluffy. Add the kefir-soda mixture and the vegetable oil, and beat again.
  3. Sift the flour, baking powder, and cocoa into the batter, and mix with a spatula.
  4. Peel the apples, cut into pieces, add to the batter, and fold in with a spatula. Pour the batter into a greased pan and level it out.
  5. For the filling, mix the cottage cheese, sour cream, egg, and sugar in a bowl, then beat with a mixer into a creamy mixture.
  6. Spoon the cottage cheese mixture around the perimeter of the pan over the batter, then use the same spoon to swirl it into the batter - but don't overdo it.
  7. Bake in a preheated 180°C oven for 35-40 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick - it should come out dry. Let the cake cool, then dig in. Enjoy!
