Description
I had a mold with a diameter of 22 cm, but you can use one with a diameter of 24–26 cm; then the pie won't be as high and the filling layer will be thinner. But we love tall pies. The pie is easy to make, with a small set of ingredients, very tasty, with juicy, sweet-and-sour filling and airy dough.
Ingredients
- Wheat Flour - 2½ cups
- Margarine - 6.3 oz
- Salt - a pinch
- Milk - 1 cup
- Sugar - 1½ cups
- Oranges - 1 piece
- Dry yeast - 1.1 oz
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Warm the milk to 100°F, dissolve a teaspoon of sugar and the yeast in it, and let it sit until the yeast forms a 'cap'. Grate the margarine into the flour, add salt, and rub it with your hands until it resembles crumbs. Then add the milk-yeast mixture and knead the dough. Let it rest in a warm place for 1 hour.
Step 2
Cut the orange with the peel into wedges and grind it through a meat grinder along with the peel. Mix the orange mixture with sugar.
Step 3
Divide the dough into two parts. Form one part into the bottom, place it in a baking mold lined with parchment paper and greased with vegetable oil, and create edges.
Step 4
Add the filling, fold the edges over, brush with egg white, and cover with the second rolled-out piece.
Step 5
You can decorate the top of the pie with strips or leaves made from the leftover dough. Prick it with a fork and brush with egg. Let the pie rest for 30 minutes.
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 190–410°F.
Step 7
Bake the pie for 25–30 minutes until the top is golden brown. Check for doneness with a knife or wooden stick.
Step 8
Remove the pie from the oven, let it cool slightly, and cut into pieces.
