Jellied Pie with Apricots and Raspberries

Jellied pie with apricots and raspberries according to this recipe turns out to be very tasty and aromatic. Delicate, soft, moderately sweet dough and a lot of juicy filling is a real magic wand for lovers of simple and quick homemade baking. Now, in the season of fresh berries and fruits, it's time to prepare such pies, which, moreover, do not require special skills and abilities in cooking.

I won't tell you any secrets when making a jellied pie - everything is as simple as shelling pears. You, of course, will find some nuances along the way of the recipe (I can't help but focus on something, you know), but they are not so fundamental either. We will cook this delicious pie on the basis of a bulk dough on kefir, the composition of which can be changed every time, adjusting to your own taste preferences. This time I added more sugar, as the apricots and raspberries were not very sweet (I would say, even sour).

Ingredients

• Pour dough:
• Kefir (250 milliliters)
• Wheat flour of the highest grade (250 grams)
• Sugar (180 grams)
• Chicken eggs (2 pieces)
• Butter (50 grams)
• Baking soda (0.5 teaspoon)
• Vanillin (1 pinch)
• Salt (1 pinch)
• Filling:
• Apricot (400 grams)
• Raspberries (100 grams)

Directions

1. To prepare a simple, quick and tasty jellied pie, you will need the following ingredients: kefir of any fat content (I have 3.5%), wheat flour (premium or first grade), medium-sized chicken eggs (45-50 grams each), butter, sugar sand, baking soda, as well as a pinch of fine salt and vanillin (optional, you can skip it if you don't like it). For the filling, take fresh apricots and raspberries (I have frozen berries). Let me remind you that when working with bulk dough, all products must be at room temperature, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance and leave them on the table for about an hour.
2. Immediately turn on the oven to warm up to 180 degrees, since the dough is made very quickly. Wash the apricots, dry them and cut each fruit into 4 parts, removing the stone - the weight is indicated in the already prepared form.
3. Pour 250 milliliters of kefir into a large bowl, add two chicken eggs.
4. Pour 180 grams of sugar there and, if desired, a pinch of vanillin (you can replace it with 1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar). Melt the butter in advance and cool to room temperature - pour it into a bowl. Mix everything until smooth with a whisk or beat for a short time with a mixer. It is important that the granulated sugar crystals are almost completely dissolved.
5. Weigh the wheat flour, mix it with half a teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt. We sift everything to get rid of lumps and impurities. Then add the dry mixture to the liquid base and mix again
6. The poured dough must be completely homogeneous, without lumps. In consistency, it resembles low-fat sour cream.
7. Now we take a baking dish (I have a square 20x20 cm). If your mold is not silicone, lubricate it with vegetable oil. It is not necessary to lubricate silicone - nothing sticks to it (at least for me). We spread a third of the bulk dough into a mold and level it with a spoon or spatula. You see, the dough is not quite runny - it partially holds its shape.
8. Evenly spread one third of the apricot slices and raspberries on the dough (you do not need to defrost the frozen ones).
9. Fill in the second third of the dough, put in the second third of the filling. We repeat the procedure again so that we get 3 layers of dough and 3 layers of filling. This is necessary so that the apricots and raspberries do not lie on the bottom of the cake, but are evenly distributed throughout the entire volume.
10. Cooking a jellied pie with apricots and raspberries in a preheated oven on a medium level (I have a gas stove, bottom heating) at 180 degrees for about 40 (+ -) minutes. When the cake is well browned, check the readiness with a wooden skewer or toothpick. If the torch comes out of the dough dry, the jellied pie is ready.
11. We take it out of the mold and let it cool. Such a cake, by the way, is good both warm and completely cooled down.
12. The jellied pie according to this recipe turns out to be very tasty and aromatic. Delicate, soft, moderately sweet dough and a lot of juicy filling - just a lifesaver for lovers of simple and quick homemade baking. Cook for your health and bon appetit!
