When we hear the word "cheesecakes", at the first moment in our head there are pictures and associations associated with cheese. But in fact, we are talking about wonderful delicious cakes made on the basis of cottage cheese.
About their taste and benefits can talk a lot and for a long time. But lovers of cottage cheese pancakes know that if you just eat a few cheesecakes for breakfast, we get a good charge of energy for our body, after which it can work without interruption until lunch. And here the question arises of what is the
energy value of this dish.
Let's take a close look at the products included in the cheesecakes. The calorie content of each of them individually is: cottage cheese (18% fat) - 236 kcal, flour - 334 kcal, sugar - 399 kcal, margarine (butter) - 743 kcal, chicken egg - 157 kcal. The energy of these products is mixed, and in the end we get a morning dessert with a calorie content of 300.2 kcal, of course, provided that you eat them only 100 grams and they will be seasoned with a dessert spoon of sour cream.
Such indicators can make many refuse this delicacy from cottage cheese, but do not rush to do this. After all, you can
cook cheesecakes, the calorie content of which will be significantly reduced due to small changes in the recipe and method of preparation. So, for example, "raw" cottage cheese. They include: carrots, cucumber, radish and herbs. All of these vegetables are rubbed on a fine grater and mixed with cottage cheese, previously filtered through a sieve. Diet cheesecakes can be served by forming stars, crescents, etc., decorating them with greens from the resulting mass using confectionery forms.
For lovers of traditional cuisine, you can recommend preparing delicious cheesecakes in the oven. The composition of the products included in them will remain the same, but you will not have to use additional fats for frying and sour cream as a sauce. These are cheesecakes, the calorie content of which is significantly reduced. And if raisins, dried apricots, prunes, bananas, apples, pears are added to the dough, then the taste of baked “curd buns” will acquire a special, refined shade that no one can resist.
Many of the main ingredients that make up
cheesecakes are replaced by inventive housewives with similar ones. So, for example, you can introduce honey instead of sugar, of course, if you have no allergies to it. Or replace flour with semolina. In this case, the
curd pancakes will turn out to be more friable and crumbly. But do not forget about one thing - we prepare cheese cakes, in which the main role is played by cottage cheese. It is he who forms the basis of this dish. Its amount should not be less than 500 g per 2-4 tablespoons of flour and 2 eggs.
But no matter what cooking method you choose, no matter what sauces they are seasoned with, remember that cheesecakes, whose calorie content is high, are very useful. Eating even a small portion of cottage cheese pancakes, you saturate your body with vitamins A, B1, B2, B5, B6, B9, B12, E, PP, H, minerals and a whole range of micro and macro elements. Therefore, do not deny yourself such a pleasant dessert, even for the sake of a beautiful figure!
