Baking a fluffy cake for a cozy tea party at home is a great idea! Where do we start? The most popular are those products, the recipe of which we will test right in the kitchen today. Crumbly apple pie, pastries with jam or sweet cottage cheese filling - all of them will make the evening warm and memorable. It is necessary to cook each of the above in order to choose the most favorite and make it an integral part of home tea drinking.

Crushed Jam Pie

Opens a parade of pie recipes that are easy to bake. Jam is a good stuffing. No need to engage in lengthy preliminary manipulations, it is enough to prepare crumbly dough for the pie and, after laying out the filling, you can send it to the oven. It is better to take a dessert "with sourness". Perfect jam from currants, apples and berries, in which there is a lot of pectin. Ingredients for this crumbly cake:

1. Butter - 200 grams. You can replace this component with margarine.
2. Sugar - 150-200 grams.
3. Raw egg yolks - 2 pieces. It is allowed to introduce one whole egg instead, but you should be prepared for the fact that the crumbly cake will not be so tender.
4. Jam - about 1 cup.
5. Flour - half a kilo.
6. Jam for stuffing or thick jam.
7. Citrus zest can be used for flavoring.

Knead the dough correctly

Any recipe for a crumbly pie begins with the correct technology for preparing its base - dough. There are some little tricks here. The oil for it is better to use slightly melted. Cut it up and rub it with granulated sugar. Enter the yolks. Stir quickly again. It is not necessary to achieve a uniform consistency. To make a crumbly cake, its base, on the contrary, should resemble crumbs. Pour the flour and grind the composition with butter, sugar, yolks and zest. We send the resulting crumb to the refrigerator for ten minutes.

Cooking method

We take out the form for the pie. Turn on the oven to preheat. Lightly grease the bottom of the mold and the sides. Pour a little more than half of the crumbs to the bottom. Smooth with a spoon or hand - whichever is more convenient for you. Barely pressing down the future bottom layer of the pie, we crush it. We put jam on the surface. We fill the surface of the entire product with the remaining dough and level it. We send the workpiece for forty minutes into the bowels of a hot (180–200 degrees) oven.

After the pastry is cooked, no need to rush and take it out of the mold. Such a dough is very unstable when hot: it breaks easily andcrumbles. The solution is simple - leave the resulting product in the form until it is completely cooled. It won't take long after twenty or thirty minutes you can start drinking tea.

Cheese Pie

Sweet, tender and satisfying - this dessert will be appreciated by lovers of cottage cheese baking. Ingredients needed to make Fluffy Cottage Cheese Pie:

1. Flour - 2.5 cups.
2. Margarine (or butter) - 200 grams.
3. Sugar - 1.5 cups. Half a cup goes to the preparation of the filling, the rest goes to the dough.
4. Baking powder in the form of powder - 1 teaspoon without a slide. Can be replaced with the same amount of baking soda.
5. Eggs - 3 pieces.
6. Half a kilo of cottage cheese.

Let's start creating a hearty pie

1. Let the butter (margarine) lie down for two or three hours outside the refrigerator. Grind it by grinding it with a glass of sugar.
2. Add the entire rate of baking powder to the flour, gradually introduce this mixture into the composition. You should end up with a crumbly mass.
3. We send the resulting dough to the refrigerator while we work on creating the filling.

Curd filling

All three eggs and half a glass of sugar must be beaten. It is better to use a mixer for this procedure, but you can limit yourself to a fork or spoon. Gradually introduce cottage cheese, continue beating. When the mass acquires comparative uniformity: it begins to resemble the consistency of thick sour cream, then the filling is ready.

Next, as in the first case, heat the oven. We coat the form with vegetable oil and lay out part of the crumbs from the dough. Put all the curd filling on top. We fill the top with a part of the crumbs, level it and send it for forty minutes into the bowels of our oven. As soon as the pastry is cooked, we take it out, but do not pull it out of the mold in order to avoid destruction. We wait half an hour and now we release the cake from the mold without loss.

Cheese and cocoa pie

Chocolate flavor diversifies the pie stuffed with cottage cheese. What you need for baking:

• flour - 400 grams;
• margarine - 200 grams;
• cocoa powder - 4 tablespoons;
• cottage cheese - 400 grams;
• sugar - 250 grams;
• eggs - 4 pieces;
• yogurt (cherry flavor) - 100 grams;
• vanillin;
• s alt - a pinch.

Cooking steps

Mix half a glass of sugar with cocoa. Combine this mixture with butter and flour, add s alt to make a crumb. Cool the resulting base in the refrigerator.

In a deep bowl, beat the eggs and add the rest of the sugar. Mix and add cottage cheese. Add yogurt and vanilla.

Prepare a form (detachable) by smearing the bottom and sides with oil. Lay out part of the loose base. Count so that this cake is a little thicker than the top. Pour the filling of cottage cheese and yogurt onto the surface. We close the workpiece with the remains of crumbly dough crumbs. We smooth the top of the future pie with a spoon.

Heat upoven to a temperature value of 180-200 degrees. We place the form with the pie inside the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. When the cake is baked, open the oven door and let it stand in such conditions for ten minutes. Now we take it out, but we are not in a hurry to get it out of the mold. Wait at least another thirty minutes for the pastry to cool completely to room temperature. After this time, release the cake from the mold and serve with tea.

Crushed Apple Pie

This pastry is in no way inferior to the previous two. Fragrant apple pie made from sand chips will not leave anyone indifferent.

What will we cook from:

• flour - 300 grams;
• sugar - 150 grams;
• margarine (or butter) - 150 grams;
• half a kilo of apples (preferably green, fragrant varieties);
• water - 200 milliliters;
• sugar - 5 tablespoons for stuffing;
• potato starch - 1 tablespoon;
• vanillin or vanilla sugar.

First, prepare the base for baking. Grate a large fraction of chilled butter (margarine), quickly rub the chips with flour until crumbs are obtained. Sending to a cold place.

Apple filling

While the crumb is cooling, prepare the apple filling. We wash and clean each apple from inedible elements. Don't forget to take out the seed box. Cut fruit into medium cubes. If the darkening of the pulp has begun, then as soon as possible you need to sprinkle on applecubes of lemon juice.

We take a small saucepan for further preparation of an unusual apple filling. Pour sugar into the pan, five tablespoons. Add vanillin or vanilla sugar, to taste. We introduce starch from potatoes into the dry mixture. We mix the composition. Pour the resulting mixture with water and stir again, achieving uniformity.

Send the pan to the stove. We bring the composition to a boil. On low heat with constant stirring, cook the resulting jelly for no more than a minute. The mixture will become thick and viscous. You should put all the apple cubes in a saucepan with jelly liquid. Mix ingredients for filling.

Put a piece of dough crumbs into a detachable form. Press the surface down with a spoon to make it even. On top of the lower cake we put our filling of jelly and apples. Level the surface again. With the remaining sand crumbs, close the apple layer and smooth it to perfection.

Put the cake pan into the hot oven. We bake the product for at least forty minutes until golden brown. When the cake is ready, it must be completely cooled so that the jelly filling does not leak out and the fragile base is not damaged. Let it cool down at room temperature first. Then you can put the pastries in the refrigerator for thirty minutes. The pie is completely ready to eat. Take it out of the mold and cut into pieces. Bon appetit!
