At a glance
This cottage cheese and poppy seed cake brings together a buttery oat crust, a creamy curds layer, and a warm spiced poppy seed filling. You'll spend about 25 minutes on prep work and a short chill in the fridge, then bake everything together for roughly 45 minutes—the trickiest part is getting the dough pressed evenly into the tin, but your hands work just fine if you don't have a rolling pin.
