Cooking context

25 min estimated total time for 2 servings.

Ingredients

  • 2 piece apple
  • a pinch cinnamon
  • 1 2/5 oz chia seeds
  • 0.18 oz flaxseed
  • 6 tbsp quark
  • 0.42 cup plant milk
  • 1 tbsp protein powder

Instructions

  1. 1
    Dice the apples into small cubes; set aside.
  2. 2
    Heat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat and add a splash (about 2 Tbsp) of water.
  3. 3
    Add the diced apples and a pinch of cinnamon to the skillet; sauté for 3–4 minutes until the apples are just softened but not browned.
  4. 4
    Transfer the cooked apples to a bowl; reserve about 2 Tbsp for garnish and keep the rest for the mousse.
  5. 5
    In a separate mixing bowl, combine the low‑fat (or soy) quark, chia seeds, optional flaxseed, plant milk, and optional protein powder.
  6. 6
    Add one‑third of the sautéed apples to the bowl and whisk (or blend with a hand blender) until the mixture is smooth and the chia seeds begin to thicken, about 1 minute.
  7. 7
    Cover the bowl and let the mousse rest at room temperature for 5 minutes, allowing the chia to fully hydrate and the texture to set.
  8. 8
    Divide the remaining sautéed apples evenly between two serving bowls, creating a base layer.
  9. 9
    Spoon the chia‑quark mousse over the apple base in each bowl, spreading evenly.
  10. 10
    Top each mousse with the reserved apple pieces and, if desired, sprinkle with optional toppings such as chopped pecan nuts, speculaas crumbs, or granola.
  11. 11
    Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 days; the mousse will continue to firm up as it chills.
