Ingredients

Dough

Filling

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix the cottage cheese, eggs, flour, baking powder, and sweetener until a soft, smooth dough forms. It should be firm and easy to handle, not sticky.

  2. 2

    Add the poppy seeds to a small saucepan with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain thoroughly, then blend with the sweetener, lemon zest, and milk until you have a thick, spreadable filling.

  3. 3

    Roll the dough into a large rectangle and spread the poppy seed filling evenly over the surface.

  4. 4

    Cut the dough into long strips, then roll each strip into a swirl.

  5. 5

    Air fry at 260°F (130°C) for 20 minutes, then increase the temperature to 310°F (150°C) and cook for another 5 minutes, or until lightly golden.
