Fluffy yeast pies with milk

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make fluffy cakes with yeast and milk? Measure out the necessary ingredients. Take odorless vegetable oil. Milk is suitable for any fat content. Vanilla sugar can be replaced with vanilla (at the tip of the knife).

2. Step 2:

   

   Sift flour into a wide bowl with high sides. Sifting will saturate it with oxygen, which will help the dough to rise easier and faster. And the pies will turn out lush and airy.

3. Step 3:

   

   Heat the milk slightly. In a bowl, combine yeast, 1 tsp. sugar and about 70 ml of milk. Mix everything well and leave for 10-12 minutes to activate the yeast. The lush "cap" that appeared on the surface speaks of the good quality of yeast. If it has not formed or has risen very slightly, it is better to replace the yeast with others.

4. Step 4:

   

   In a wide volumetric bowl, whisk the egg with sugar, salt and vanilla sugar.

5. Step 5:

   

   Pour in the remaining warm milk, mix.

6. Step 6:

   

   Add the activated yeast, mix lightly.

7. Step 7:

   

   Pour vegetable oil into the resulting mass, mix.

8. Step 8:

   

   Add about 3/4 of the sifted flour. Do not pour out all the flour at once, it may need less than the specified amount. Excess flour in the dough can no longer be removed, and the lack can be corrected. Mix the dough first with a spoon.

9. Step 9:

   

   Pour the rest of the flour in small portions, while stirring the dough with your hands. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the consistency of the dough.

10. Step 10:

    

    Knead the dough. It turns out to be soft, pliable, almost not sticking to the hands. Cover it with a towel and leave it in a warm place to rise for 70-80 minutes. The rise time of the dough may vary slightly, it depends on the air temperature and yeast activity.

11. Step 11:

    

    Prepare the filling for the pies. I made an apple filling with cinnamon and sugar. Apples are better to take sweet or sweet-sour varieties. It is desirable that they are not too rigid. For the filling, you can take fresh fruits or berries, as well as jam or jam.

12. Step 12:

    

    Wash the apples, dry them. Peel the apples from the skin and seeds. Cut the apples into small cubes.

14. Step 13:

    

    Add sugar and cinnamon to the sliced apples, mix. Add the amount of sugar to taste. Cinnamon is also to taste and desire.

15. Step 14:

    

    The dough has increased in volume by 2.5 times and is ready for cutting.

16. Step 15:

    

    Knead the dough carefully, put it on the table, sprinkled with flour. Divide the dough into equal parts, the number of which will depend on the desired size of the pies. Roll each piece of dough into a bun. Cover the buns with a towel while the pies are forming.

17. Step 16:

    

    Roll out each bun into a round cake.

18. Step 17:

    

    Put the filling in the middle of the tortilla.

19. Step 18:

    

    Connect the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch the pie. You can form pies of any shape.

20. Step 19:

    

    Place the blanks on a parchment-lined baking sheet at some distance from each other. During baking, the pies will rise and grow in size. Cover them with a light towel and leave for proofing for 15-20 minutes.

21. Step 20:

    

    To lubricate the pies, lightly beat the egg with milk with a fork.

22. Step 21:

    

    Grease the remaining blanks with egg mixture on top.

23. Step 22:

    

    Bake the pies in a preheated 180 C oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. The baking time and mode may differ from those indicated, be sure to focus on the specifics of your oven.

24. Step 23:

    

    Let the finished baking cool. Serve fluffy pies with fragrant tea, tart coffee or milk. Bon appetit!
