Ingredients
  

Cottage cheese layer
  • 500 g cottage cheese homemade, full-fat
  • 2 eggs
  • 100 g sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch or potato starch or flour
  • vanillin
Pumpkin layer
  • 500 g boiled or baked pumpkin thick puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 100 g sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch or potato starch or flour
  • orange essence or zest of one orange
Glaze
  • 100 g yogurt or sour cream
  • 100 g boiled or baked pumpkin thick puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 30 g sugar

Method
 

  1. Grease a baking dish (I use a glass one) with vegetable oil.
  2. Boil or bake the pumpkin and blend into a puree. Set aside 500g for the pumpkin layer and 100g for the glaze.
  3. Blend the cottage cheese mixture until smooth, then separately blend the pumpkin mixture.
  4. Pour the two mixtures into the dish alternately, like a Zebra cake. If the cottage cheese mixture is dense, spoon it in randomly and pour the pumpkin mixture over it, alternating a couple of layers.
  5. Bake at 160°C for 40-50 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, blend the ingredients for the glaze. Take out the casserole, pour the glaze over it and return to the oven for another 20-30 minutes.
  7. Let the finished casserole cool in the oven, then remove and slice.
