Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Dissolve sugar and salt in sour milk at room temperature. the milk can be anything — slightly sour, well sour (the main thing is not to drain the whey), or even curdled when boiled.

Step 2

Step 2
Add the yeast and stir until it is completely dissolved in the milk.

Step 3

Step 3
Add 2 eggs and stir.

Step 4

Step 4
We begin to sift flour into the dough little by little.

Step 5

Step 5
Mix until thick enough to make it difficult to stir with a whisk.

Step 6

Step 6
Melt the butter.

Step 7

Step 7
Add butter little by little to the dough and mix. The more oil, the longer it takes to mix into the dough.

Step 8

Step 8
The dough with butter becomes viscous.

Step 9

Step 9
We continue to add (always sift) flour.

Step 10

Step 10
Add until the whisk can no longer handle it and replace it with a wooden spoon.

Step 11

Step 11
Add flour until your hand is tired and the spoon has difficulty turning. Let the dough rise, covered with a lid or film.

Step 12

Step 12
While the dough is rising, prepare the apple spread. Wash the apples, measure out the sugar, cinnamon and water.

Step 13

Step 13
Peeling apples. Cut them into cubes. Place all the ingredients for the spread in a saucepan and boil.

Step 14

Step 14
We need puree with apple pieces. I use a potato masher for mashed potatoes — when the apples are boiling, add a little bit right into the pan. You can also use a blender, but then all the spread will be absorbed by the dough (that’s what it is). Of course, the aroma of apples in the pie is very noticeable in any case. The finished spread needs to be cooled, even in the refrigerator.

Step 15

Step 15
At this point the dough begins to come out.

Step 16

Step 16
If the spread is not ready yet (or has not cooled down), press the dough or knead it a little.

Step 17

Step 17
Turn on the oven to warm up to 180 degrees and transfer the dough to the flour table.

Step 18

Step 18
Divide into 4 parts.

Step 19

Step 19
Mix one and roll it into a circle the size of the baking sheet. Transfer the layer to a greased and floured baking sheet and grease with a spoonful of apple spread. When there is a lot of it, it is very difficult to shape the cake.

Step 20

Step 20
We do this with three layers.

Step 21

Step 21
We do not lubricate the top layer. We mark our pie as if we want to divide it into parts.

Step 22

Step 22
Without touching the center, we cut to the end according to the markings, and then we make 8 more cuts on each petal, only without touching either the center or the edge.

Step 23

Step 23
Turn each petal out in two steps. The first is to wrap the corners into the hole from the bottom up (from the side of the baking sheet towards you). The second step is to close the corners at the bottom, on the side of the baking sheet, forming an oval petal.

Step 24

Step 24
Transfer the pie to the oven. When it starts to turn golden, brush it with beaten egg and let it finish baking. The pie baked in my oven for 35 minutes.

Step 25

Step 25
Break off a piece and enjoy the tea!

Step 26

Step 26
We never cut this pie — the spiral texture of the crumb, tenderness and aroma do not allow us to take a knife. It’s also very tasty to dip a piece of pie into the remaining spread.
