Mixing bowls
Rolling pin
Spatula
Springform pan (18 cm)
Baking sheet (optional)
- 150 g wheat flour
- 80 g butter
- 50 g sugar
- 1 egg
- 500 g quark 40%
- 1 pack vanilla pudding powder
- 120 g sugar
- 1 packet vanilla sugar
- 1 egg
- 50 ml milk
- 1 small can tangerines drained
Mix flour, butter, sugar, and egg until a smooth dough forms.
Shape the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick.
Transfer and press the dough into a greased springform pan (18 cm) to form an edge.
In a bowl, mix quark, sugar, vanilla sugar, pudding powder, egg, and milk until smooth.
Drain the tangerines and set aside.
Pour half the filling onto the dough, layer half the tangerines on top, add the remaining filling, and finish with the rest of the tangerines.
Preheat the oven to 175°C and bake for 60-70 minutes until edges are golden and center jiggles slightly.
Cool completely before glazing.
Use full-fat Greek yogurt or ricotta cheese if you can't find quark. Swap wheat flour for almond flour or a gluten-free blend for a gluten-free option. To enhance flavor, brush the cooled crust with apricot jam before adding the filling. Store leftovers in the fridge covered for up to 3 days or freeze wrapped slices for longer storage. Serve chilled for the best flavor experience, and feel free to garnish with mint or whipped cream before serving.
