  1. Step 1:

    Step 2.

    To activate the yeast in a small bowl, combine 1 tsp. sugar, yeast and 50 ml of milk. Milk should be warm (35-38 degrees, not higher) Mix everything, leave for 15-20 minutes until the foam "caps" appear. If you do not have such a cap, replace the yeast.

    Melt butter over low heat, cool slightly.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 10.

    Then pour the flour in small portions, stirring the dough each time and observing its consistency.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11.

    The dough turns out to be very soft, pliable. It can stick to your hands quite a bit. Do not try to eliminate this by adding flour, so as not to get a steep dough. This dough will rise for a long time, and the baking will be heavy. Cover the dough with a towel and leave to rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12.

    Prepare the products for the filling. You can make any filling for pies. I settled on a filling of apples and raisins. Take the amount of sugar to taste, depending on the sweetness of the apples. Clean the raisins from debris, rinse and dry.

    Wash the apples, dry them, peel and peel the seeds. Cut the apples into small cubes.

  15. Step 15:

    Step 15.

    When the dough increases in volume by 2-2.5 times, you can start forming pies.

  16. Step 16:

    Step 16.

    Knead the dough gently, put it on the table, sprinkled with flour. Divide the dough into equal parts depending on the desired size of the pies.

  17. Step 17:

    Step 17.

    Roll out each part of the dough into a round tortilla.

  18. Step 18:

    Step 18.

    Put the filling in the middle.

  19. Step 19:

    Step 19.

    Form a pie of the desired shape, pinch the edges well.

  20. Step 20:

    Step 20.

    Blind all the pies in this way. Put them on a sheet covered with oiled parchment, seam down. Cover the pies with a towel and let them stand for 15 minutes.

  21. Step 21:

    Step 21.

    In a small bowl, beat the raw egg with a fork until smooth.

  22. Step 22:

    Step 22.

    Grease the pies with beaten egg on top.

  23. Step 23:

    Step 23.

    Bake the pies in a preheated 180C oven for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Determine the exact time and temperature of baking according to your oven. When the pies are ready, remove them from the oven along with the baking sheet.

  24. Step 24:

    Step 24.

    Let the finished pies cool and serve to the table. Bon appetit!

Not only pies can be baked from the pastry yeast dough, but also large open or closed pies, rolls with various fillings: nut, poppy seeds, jam, jam, etc.

The liquid in which yeast is bred should be pleasant to the touch, no higher than 40 degrees. Why is this important? In a warm environment, yeast is well activated, in a hot one it will die, and in a cold one it simply will not work. 

Dry yeast can be replaced with fresh pressed yeast, based on the proportion of 1:3. That is, for 1 gram of dry yeast required by the recipe, you need to take 3 grams of fresh.

Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. Read a lot of useful information about flour and its properties in this article!

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information in this article !
