Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 1 h
  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make a grated cake with jam on margarine? Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Take high-quality margarine. Take it out of the refrigerator in advance. It should have time to soften. You can replace margarine with butter. Rinse the egg thoroughly and dry it with paper napkins. Be sure to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Put soft margarine in a suitable container. Add sugar. White sugar can be replaced with brown sugar. It will give the pastry a caramel flavor and aroma. If you want, pour vanilla sugar or vanilla on the tip of a knife. Rub the butter and sugar well with a mixer, turning on the highest speed. The mass should become light and lush, and the sugar should dissolve.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Beat in one egg and mix well with a mixer or whisk until smooth. Pour in the sifted flour and soda in parts (in 2-3 sets). If you use baking powder, first mix it with part of the flour, stir. Then pour into the mass of margarine, so it is better distributed over the dough. Then add the rest of the flour. Knead with a spoon, and then with your hands a soft, non-sticky dough. Flour may need more or less, focus on the consistency.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Divide the dough into two unequal parts. Wrap most of it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator. The smaller part of the dough, wrapped in a pact, is sent to the freezer for 30-40 minutes. Proceed to the formation of the pie. Put most of the dough into the mold, distribute it with your hands over the entire shape, making the sides. If it is more convenient, you can roll out the dough first and then put it in a mold. If you bake on a baking sheet, cover it first with parchment so that the cake does not burn.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Put the jam on the base of the dough and spread it over the entire surface. I have strawberry-currant jam, but any sweet and sour thick jam, jam or jam will do.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Remove the smaller part of the dough from the freezer. On a large or medium grater, rub it on top, covering the entire surface of the pie. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees in advance. Bake the pie for about 30 minutes until golden brown. The baking time may vary, since everyone's ovens are different.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Remove the finished pie from the oven. It must be removed from the mold after complete cooling, otherwise it will break. Cut the cooled grated jam pie into pieces and serve with tea or warm milk.

You don't need to knead the shortbread dough for a long time or hurry to add flour, otherwise it will become stiff.

When the top layer of baking is slightly browned, check it for readiness: pierce it with a wooden skewer in several places, if the skewer comes out dry, then the form (or baking sheet) can be taken out of the oven. 

Instead of sugar, you can use a sweetener that is not afraid of heat treatment.
