Fruit pie in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake a pie with fruit and caramel crust in the oven? Very simple! First, prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. And start by preparing the test. Take flour of the highest grade, eggs - large selected. Milk is suitable for any fat content. I have brown cane sugar, but if you don't have it, you can replace it with regular sugar.

2. Step 2:

   

   Sift flour with baking powder and salt through a sieve.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pour the sifted flour into the blender bowl. Add 100 g of diced cold butter and 50-70 g of sugar, depending on the desired sweetness of the dough. Whisk everything into fine crumbs. You may have more or less flour, focus on the consistency of the dough.

4. Step 4:

   

   Combine eggs with milk and shake until smooth with a whisk.

5. Step 5:

   

   Pour the egg mixture into the flour crumbs and mix. The dough will turn out viscous and sticky.

6. Step 6:

   

   Transfer the dough to a deep baking dish with a diameter of 20-22 cm greased with butter and smooth it out. Note that the dough will rise during baking and some of the melted butter may spill out if the sides are not high enough.

7. Step 7:

   

   Mix the remaining sugar with cinnamon.

9. Step 8:

   

   Melt the remaining butter over low heat or in the microwave.

10. Step 9:

    

    Now prepare the fruit filling. I have red plums and a pear. You can add other fruits: apple, cherry (remove the seeds and drain the juice).

11. Step 10:

    

    Wash the plums, cut them into halves and remove the bones. Take ripe plums, but dense, so that they retain their shape when baking. Cut the pear into slices and also remove the bones.

12. Step 11:

    

    Put the fruit on the dough and press lightly.

13. Step 12:

    

    Sprinkle the cake with sugar and cinnamon on top. You can reduce the amount of sugar to your liking.

14. Step 13:

    

    Pour melted butter evenly over the top. Bake the pie in preheated to 180 ° C for 30-40 minutes. The exact time depends on the characteristics of your oven and the thickness of the pie. I advise you to put a piece of foil or parchment under the mold in case the pie rises a lot, and the height of the mold is not enough. Then the melted butter will drip on the bottom of the oven. Bon appetit!
