Višňová žemľovka is a Slovak sour cherry bread pudding served as a sweet lunch: sliced bread rolls soaked in sweetened milk and eggs are layered with quark (farmer's cheese) and pitted sour cherries, then topped with meringue and baked until golden. Stale bread rolls work well here, too.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Bread rolls

    10 min

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Cut the bread rolls into rounds. Whisk the milk with the egg yolks and vanilla sugar, then soak the bread slices in the mixture.

  2. Layers

    10 min

    Mix the quark with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place half the soaked bread in a greased baking dish, spread the quark over it, add the sour cherries, and cover with the remaining bread. Pour the remaining milk mixture over the top.

  3. Bake

    25 min

    Bake for 25 minutes, until the bread on top is golden.

  4. Meringue

    10 min

    Beat the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread over the bread pudding and bake for another 8–10 minutes, until the meringue is golden.

Tip: If using frozen sour cherries, toss them with a tablespoon of semolina and add them while still frozen so their juices do not make the bread pudding soggy.
