  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make pies in the oven on kefir like fluff? First of all, prepare the dough. How to make dough? Pour kefir at room temperature into a deep bowl, add salt and sugar, mix. Kefir is suitable for any fat content.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Sift the flour through a fine sieve (this will enrich it with oxygen and the baking will turn out more magnificent), add baking powder to it, mix thoroughly several times.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Add vegetable oil (refined, odorless) to kefir. Mix it up.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Gradually adding flour to the kefir-oil mixture, knead the dough. Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. It should be homogeneous, elastic and soft. Gather the dough into a ball and cover with cling film or a kitchen towel. Leave for 30 minutes at room temperature.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Form the pies in a familiar and convenient way for you. Take one ball of dough, roll it out with a rolling pin into a plate, put the filling in the middle, pinch the dough on top, hiding the filling in it. To prevent your hands from sticking to the dough and rolling pin, you can periodically dip them in flour. I suggest making pies with a "string" on top.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. To make the pies look ruddy, smear them with yolk on top, if the yolk is too thick, add a teaspoon of milk to it. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and put the pies to bake for 20-25 minutes, until browning. The exact time will depend on the characteristics of your oven. Cool the finished pies and serve them to the table. Enjoy your meal!
