Fruit baked goods are the perfect dessert, not sugary, but sweet enough. Make Yulia Vysotskaya's English Plum Pie or make a flaky British charlotte. Serve it for tea, and few people will have the strength to refuse an appetizing delicacy with a delicate aristocratic aroma.
English plum pie according to the recipe of Julia Vysotskaya
Ingredients:
- 300 g frozen or fresh plums;
- 200 g flour;
- 4 chicken eggs;
- 180 g butter;
- 1 tbsp. Sahara;
- 1 tsp each baking powder and vanilla sugar;
- a pinch of salt;
- vegetable oil;
- 1, 5 tbsp. icing sugar;
- 400 g ice cream.
Do not melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove, otherwise the dough will be very greasy.
Empty the plums from the freezer. Leave the butter at room temperature for 40 minutes to soften. Combine it with sugar in a deep bowl and beat with a whisk or mixer. Mash the eggs with a fork in a separate bowl, add them to the oil mixture and beat again. Add 4 tablespoons flour mixed with baking powder, vanilla sugar and salt. Stir in the remaining flour, bringing the dough to a thick sour cream consistency.
Preheat oven to 180oC. Wash the plums, remove the pits and cut each fruit into quarters. Lubricate a baking dish with vegetable oil using a cooking brush, pour the dough into it, and smooth with the back of a tablespoon. Place the plum slices on top, placing them skin side down and pressing lightly into the base of the pie. Cook English pie for 40 minutes. Sprinkle the icing sugar over the baked goods and cut into portions. Serve them with ice cream scoops.
Apple pie in English from Julia Vysotskaya
Ingredients:
- 250 g of puff yeast-free dough;
- 2 tbsp. flour;
- 2 yellow or green apples;
- 80 g of butter;
- 2 tsp Sahara;
- 1/3 tsp cinnamon;
- 2 tbsp. apricot jam.
Defrost the dough, place it on a floured table and roll it out until you can cut a circle with a diameter of 23-26 cm (depending on the size of your mold). Place a plate on top of the appropriate parameters and cut off the excess pieces of dough with a sharp knife. Sprinkle flour on the pan, place a layer of dough on it and pierce it with a fork in several places.
For the perfect harmony of tastes, take sweet and sour apples for the recipe, for example, Semerenko or Granny Smith.
Preheat oven to 200oC. Cut the apples into thin, longitudinal slices, removing the core from them. Overlap the fruit wedges in two circles. Cover them evenly with sugar, cinnamon and thin strips of butter. Bake the cake for 25 minutes on the lowest oven rack. Transfer the finished dessert to a thick platter and pour over the warmed jam.
