Instructions
Step 1
Make butter dough - it can be the base for both sweet and hearty pies. Pour the warmed milk into a deep bowl, add the egg, yeast, salt, sugar and butter. Stir everything and add the pre-sifted flour in portions. If you plan on baking a sweet pie, you can add a pinch of vanillin or a teaspoon of vanilla sugar to the dough.
Step 2
Knead the dough, cover it with a linen towel and place the bowl in a warm place. After an hour and a half, crush the risen dough with a spoon and leave it for another hour. After it rises a second time, start creating the cake.
Step 3
Fish pie
Try baking a delicious and quick fish and rice pie. Rinse the rice and boil in salted water. For a quick process, this can be done in a microwave oven - the cereal will be ready in 10 minutes. Peel the onion and cut into thin rings. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet and fry the onion in it until transparent.
Step 4
Put the canned fish in a bowl, after draining the juice from the jar. Mash the fish with a fork. For the pie, moderately fatty fish are suitable - salmon, trout, saury or tuna. Add fried onions and rice to the canned food. Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 5
Place the dough on a floured board. Knead it with your hands and then divide it in two. Roll one into a layer and put it on a greased baking sheet. Spread the filling evenly over the top. Leave the edges of the future cake free.
Step 6
Roll the remaining dough into a layer and cover the filling with it. Pinch the edges, make a hole in the middle of the cake for steam to escape. Beat the egg and brush the surface of the product with it. Let the cake stand for a quarter of an hour and put it in the oven, preheated to 200 ° C.
Step 7
Bake the cake until golden brown. Before taking out the product, make sure that the cake is baked from the bottom by slightly lifting the edge of the cake. Put the finished baked goods on a board, brush the crust with butter and leave the cake to rest under a clean towel. Serve lukewarm, cut into pieces.
Step 8
Apple and Cinnamon Pie
You can also bake sweet cakes from basic yeast dough - they are often made open. Try an apple and cinnamon dessert. Peel the apples, remove the core, cut the fruits into thin slices and sprinkle them with lemon juice so that the apples do not darken.
Step 9
Knead the finished dough on a floured board. Separate a small part - it will be useful for decorating the cake. Roll the remaining dough into a layer. Place it on a baking sheet, forming the edges in the form of low sides. Place apple slices on the surface of the pie, spreading them out with "scales". Sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar over the apples.
Step 10
Roll the remaining dough into a layer and cut it into strips with a sharp knife. Spread them out on top of the cake, and brush with beaten egg. Allow the cake to separate and place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the pie until the dough is browned and the apples are tender. Serve lukewarm, each bite can be topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
