Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake a covered pie with apples from yeast dough? Measure out the required ingredients for the dough. Vanillin will work instead of vanilla sugar. Dry yeast can be replaced with fresh yeast. How to do this correctly, read the article at the link at the end of the recipe. Warm the milk slightly.

Step 2

Step 2
Activate the yeast. In a bowl, combine them with a small amount (about 50 ml) of warm milk and 1 tsp. sugar, stir. Wait until a fluffy “cap” appears on the surface of the yeast mixture.

Step 3

Step 3
Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove. Read about how to do this correctly at the end of the recipe. Let the melted butter come to room temperature.

Step 4

Step 4
In a large bowl, beat the egg with the remaining sugar, salt and vanilla sugar until smooth.

Step 5

Step 5
Pour in the remaining warm milk and stir lightly.

Step 6

Step 6
Add activated yeast, stir.

Step 7

Step 7
Add cooled butter and vegetable oil to the resulting mass and mix.

Step 8

Step 8
Sift in about ¾ of the total amount of flour and mix the dough with a spoon. The flour must be sifted so that it is enriched with oxygen. Then the dough will rise well and the baked goods will turn out fluffy. Read about the properties of flour in the article at the link at the end of the recipe. Do not pour out all the flour at once; you may need less than the specified amount.

Step 9

Step 9
Add the rest of the flour little by little while mixing the dough. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on its consistency.

Step 10

Step 10
Knead a homogeneous, soft, pliable dough that does not stick to your hands. Place the dough in a bowl, cover with a towel and leave in a warm place to rise for 70-90 minutes.

Step 11

Step 11
Prepare the pie filling. Wash the apples and dry them.

Step 12

Step 12
Rinse the raisins thoroughly and steam. How to steam raisins correctly? Pour hot water over the well-washed raisins and leave for 10-15 minutes. During this time it will become soft. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 13

Step 13
Peel the apples and cut them into small cubes.

Step 14

Step 14
In a bowl, combine chopped apples, raisins, cinnamon and sugar. Stir. Add sugar to taste, focusing on the sweetness of the fruit.

Step 15

Step 15
The dough increased in volume by 2-2.5 times.

Step 16

Step 16
Dust the table with flour. Gently knead the dough and place it on the table. Divide the dough into 10-12 parts. Make 6 parts the same, the rest should be slightly different from each other in size (in decreasing order).

Step 17

Step 17
Roll out one of the six identical pieces of dough into a round cake.

Step 18

Step 18
Place the filling on the dough.

Step 19

Step 19
Bring the edges of the dough together and form a dumpling-type pie. Press the edges of the dough with a fork to keep them puffy. Make the remaining large pieces of dough in the same way.

Step 20

Step 20
Cover the bottom of the baking dish with parchment and grease the sides with vegetable oil. My mold diameter is 20 cm. Place the prepared parts of the “flower” around the perimeter of the mold. How to choose a mold of the desired diameter, as well as parchment, read the article at the link at the end of the recipe.

Step 21

Step 21
Make the rest of the pieces in the same way. Place them in the mold, forming a flower. Make a round pie from the smallest part of the dough and place it in the center of the “flower”. I didnʼt get one part of the test. I made a separate small pie out of it. Cover the formed cake with a light towel and leave to proof for 15-20 minutes. Turn on the oven at 180 C.

Step 22

Step 22
Mix the egg yolk with milk and brush the cake with a pastry brush before baking. Sprinkle the middle of the “flower” with poppy seeds.

Step 23

Step 23
Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180 C for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Set the baking time and mode based on the operating characteristics of your oven. For useful information on this topic, read the article at the link at the end of the recipe. Cool the finished pie slightly and remove from the mold. Let the baked goods cool completely.

Step 24

Step 24
Cut the closed pie with apples from yeast dough into pieces and serve. Bon appetit!
