Crack 4 eggs into a large bowl and add salt to taste.

Beat the eggs with a mixer until lightly foamy.
Step 4
Add 1/2 tsp vanilla sugar and 100 g sugar (about 1/2 cup).
Step 5
Beat with a mixer until fluffy.
Step 6
Put 50 g bran (about 1/2 cup) into a suitable container and grind it with a blender.
Step 7
Add the ground bran to the egg mixture in portions and fold in with a spatula.
Step 8
Sift 150 g wheat flour (about 1 1/4 cups) into the bowl in portions.
Step 9
Mix thoroughly to make a batter with the needed consistency.
Step 10
Line a baking sheet with parchment and spread the batter evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (374°F) for 25 minutes.
Step 11
Put 300 g quark/cottage cheese (about 10 1/2 oz) into a deep bowl, then add 50 g sugar (about 1/4 cup).

Add 2 tbsp sour cream.

Blend everything with a blender until smooth and uniform.
Step 14
Transfer 1 tbsp of the prepared quark mixture into a separate bowl for decorating the roll later.

Step 17
After 25 minutes, remove the sponge from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Step 18
Trim off the firm edges of the sponge and flip it over.
Step 19
Spread the prepared quark-and-apricot cream over the sponge in an even layer and set it aside for 1 hour.
Step 20
After 1 hour, roll the sponge up tightly into a roll.
Step 21
Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours so it soaks with the cream.

After the time has passed, remove the roll from the refrigerator and spread the prepared cream from the bowl over the roll.
