Ingredients
- 1 whole pie crust enough dough for a 9-inch pie pan
- 2 cups small curd cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt
- 3 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg grated
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup light honey or sugar
Instructions
- Line a 9-inch pie or tart pan with the dough and freeze until hardened. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Set the frozen shell on a sheet pan and bake until the crust is set and lightly colored, about 25 minutes. Remove and lower the oven temperature to 350°F.
- Whisk the remaining ingredients together until smooth. Pour the filling into the shell and bake in the center of the oven until puffed, barely firm, and starting to color in places, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Cinnamon Tart
- Substitute 1 teaspoon freshly ground cinnamon for the nutmeg. This tart makes a soothing ending to meals that are heavily flavored with chile and spice.
