Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, egg and lukewarm water to form a soft dough, then knead for 8 minutes.
  2. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes under a tea towel.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk the fresh cheese with the eggs, crème fraîche, sugar and vanilla, then fold in the chopped walnuts.
  4. Preheat the oven to 180 °C and generously butter a springform cake tin.
  5. Roll out the dough into very thin layers, brush them with melted butter and stack them in the tin, keeping some back for the top.
  6. Pour the filling over the dough, cover with the remaining layers, buttering each one, then pinch the edges together.
  7. Bake for about 40 minutes, until the top is golden. Let it cool before cutting.

Variations and tips

Sweet version. Add 50 g of raisins soaked in the filling for a richer taste.
