Method:

In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients for the dough, i.e. flour, protein powder and xylitol. Then add the other ingredients – quark cheese, coconut oil and egg. With your hands, make a firm and non-sticky dough and put it in the fridge to rest for a while.

In the meantime, prepare the filling. Peel and core apples and grate them coarsely. Then add the lemon juice and ground nuts. If you prefer larger pieces, you can just chop or cut nuts finely. Finally, add xylitol and cinnamon to the mixture and make sure that everything is nicely incorporated.

Then, dust a board or some clean surface with flour and roll out the rested dough from the fridge into a rectangle. Use the apple filling to cover the dough evenly. Leave approximately 2 cm on each side without filling so that it can be wrapped easily and the filling doesn’t leak out.

Wrap the dough and brush with beaten egg. Then put it in the oven preheated to 180 °C and bake until golden brown for about 25 minutes. Make sure you let it cool completely before cutting. When serving it, dust with some icing sugar and it’s ready to go.
