How to Make Apple Quark Pie Bars
- Preheat oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Line a 30cm x 40cm baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 250g all-purpose flour, 150g granulated sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, and 1 tbsp vanilla sugar.
- Add 125g melted unsalted butter and mix until a crumbly dough forms.
- Divide the dough in half. Set aside one half.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining dough with 2 large eggs and 125ml buttermilk until well combined.
- Pour this batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- For the filling: In a medium bowl, lightly whisk 2 large eggs.
- Add 100g granulated sugar, 1 tbsp vanilla sugar, 500g quark cheese, and 2 tbsp lemon juice. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the quark mixture evenly over the dough in the pan.
- Peel, core, and thinly slice enough apples to cover the entire surface of the quark layer (approximately 4-6 medium apples).
- Arrange the apple slices neatly over the quark filling.
- Crumble the reserved dough evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set. Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
