Fresh berry pies are a popular summer dessert. In winter, baked goods can be made with frozen strawberries, cherries, cranberries or raspberries. The dish will turn out to be no less tasty and beautiful, and its preparation will take no more than an hour.
Quick Chocolate Cherry Pie
An original version of the dessert, combining the aromas of dark chocolate and sour frozen cherries. Dessert can be served warm or cold, accompanied by freshly brewed tea or coffee.
Defrost cherries (150 g) in a colander, lightly sprinkle with potato starch. Melt 150 g of butter and 80 g of dark chocolate in the microwave. Beat 3 eggs and 2 tbsp. l. Sahara. Combine eggs with butter and chocolate mixture, stir. Add 1 tbsp. l. cherry liqueur or brandy. Gradually add 1 tbsp. sifted flour mixed with 1 tsp. baking powder.
Put the thawed cherries in the dough, mix gently. Grease the silicone mold with oil, transfer the dough into it, smooth the surface with a knife. Bake the pie in an oven heated to 180 degrees. Let the dessert cool slightly and turn over onto a platter. Before serving, you can sprinkle the baked goods with powdered sugar, add a scoop of ice cream or homemade custard.
Apple and Cranberry Pie
The recipe can be changed by using lingonberries instead of cranberries and avoiding cinnamon. Serve the cake warm with melted ice cream or whipped cream.
In a separate container, beat 200 ml of condensed milk and 3 eggs with a blender. Add 100 g of thick sour cream in portions. Pour in 1 cup of sifted flour, continuing to stir. The dough should not be too thick, homogeneous, without lumps.
Grease a refractory dish with butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Peel sweet apples, cut into thin slices, put on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Add 150 g of frozen cranberries to the dough, mix. Spread the mixture evenly over the apples, smooth with a knife. Put the dish in the oven, heated to 180 degrees, bake until golden brown. You can check the readiness of the cake with a wooden splinter. If the dough does not stick to it, it's time to get the baked goods out of the oven. It is convenient to cut the pie directly in the form.
Curd raspberry pie
You can also bake a delicious pie with frozen berries in a slow cooker. Dessert will be ready in an hour. Before cooking, let the berries thaw in a colander. Then they are lightly sprinkled with starch to keep them juicy.
In a large bowl with a blender or whisk, beat 2 eggs with 0.5 tbsp. Sahara. Add 1 tsp. vanilla sugar and 200 g of soft, not too sour cottage cheese. Gradually add 1 cup of pre-sifted flour and knead a soft, elastic dough. At the end of the process, add 1 tsp. baking powder.
Grease a bowl of a multicooker with oil, lay out the dough, spread frozen raspberries (150-200 g) over the surface. Lightly press down the filling so that the berries "drown" in the dough. Close the lid, set the "Baking" mode. Cook the cake for 1 hour and then let it cool in the bowl. Put the pie on a platter, sprinkle with powdered sugar, garnish with mint leaves or fresh raspberries.
