Preparation Steps
Step 1
Prepare the pie base with pear and cottage cheese. To do this, lightly dry the bread crumbs in the oven and let cool. Grate the cheese on a fine grater, mix with soft butter and crumbs. Pepper it. Stir and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
Step 2
Spread the resulting pie base in an even thin layer over the bottom of a springform pan with a diameter of 20 cm, lined with baking paper (spread in small portions and press together). Form small sides and prick the dough with a fork.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the pie base for 10–15 minutes. The cheese cake should be well browned. Let it cool in the mold at room temperature.
Step 4
Prepare the pie filling with pear and cottage cheese. Rub the cottage cheese through a fine sieve twice. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a mixer. Add cottage cheese and beat again.
Step 5
Mash the blue cheese with a fork. Add it to the curd and egg mixture along with sour cream. Beat quickly with a mixer. Add a little salt and pepper. Pour into the pan with the cooled pie base.
Step 6
Wash the pears, cut into 4 parts and remove the cores and seeds. Cut the fruit into small pieces. Distribute them throughout the egg-curd mass, sinking them into it.
Step 7
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Bake the pear and cottage cheese pie for 30-40 minutes. The filling should be firm in the middle. Turn off the oven. Leave the pie inside for 10–15 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the pear and cottage cheese pie from the oven. Let it cool completely. For the sauce, whisk mustard with vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the mixture over the top of the pie and serve.
