I love recipes that save any situation. These turnovers are exactly that case: the dough is mixed immediately, we skip the proofing and in a moment the whole apartment smells wonderful. The combination of cream, butter and yeast gives the dough tenderness and flakiness, the tub quark filling holds its shape and is pleasantly moist.

Preparation procedure

  • Making the dough: Crumble the yeast into a bowl, sprinkle with sugar, pour in the lukewarm milk and stir. Immediately add the cream, egg yolks, both types of flour, salt and the softened butter/fat. First mix with a wooden spoon, then quickly work by hand on a board into a smooth, pliable dough.
  • Shaping: Immediately roll the dough (without proofing) on a lightly floured surface into a sheet about 3–4 mm thick. Cut squares with a knife or pastry wheel.
  • Filling: In a bowl, mix the quark, egg yolk, rum, vanilla sugar, pudding powder and powdered sugar. Add rinsed and dried raisins. The filling is thick and easy to portion.
  • Folding: Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each square, bring opposite corners together to form a pouch and press firmly. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Baking: Bake immediately without proofing and without egg wash in an oven preheated to 170 °C for about 20 minutes until golden.
  • Finishing: While still hot, lightly drizzle the turnovers with rum and immediately dust with powdered sugar. Let cool briefly on a wire rack.

Total preparation time: 45–55 minutes (20 minutes dough + 15–20 minutes shaping + 20 minutes baking)

Servings: 12–15 (approx. 24–30 turnovers depending on size)

Why “no-proof” works

The yeast combined with cream and the higher hydration of the dough works already during shaping and mainly while baking. Direct baking in a well-heated oven gives the dough a quick “feathery” rise, resulting in a delicate, flaky texture without a long wait.

Tips for guaranteed success

  • Work the dough quickly and don’t add unnecessary extra flour so it stays tender.

  • If you want a stronger aroma, add a pinch of lemon zest or vanilla to the dough.

  • The filling can be varied: make half the tray with plum jam or poppy seed – creating a variation for the whole family.

Conclusion

The whipped-cream turnovers without proofing are a quick dessert with an honest flavor that you can manage even under time pressure. The dough rolls beautifully, doesn’t stick and remains tender and delicate after baking. Save the recipe among your “go-to” ones – it’s suitable with coffee, for a Sunday table and as a sweet snack on the go.
