Pie Picker with Sweets

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   First prepare the ingredients for making the dough. We take all the necessary ingredients out of the refrigerator in advance so that they warm up.

2. Step 2:

   

   In a large bowl, sift 550 g of flour. Add fresh pressed yeast to it.

3. Step 3:

   

   And we rub the yeast with flour very carefully with our hands, trying to achieve fine, fine crumbs.

4. Step 4:

   

   Then add the soft butter.

5. Step 5:

   

   And again we rub everything very carefully.

6. Step 6:

   

   Milk is slightly heated in the microwave (the temperature should be about 35-40 C, no more, otherwise the yeast may die). Add sugar and a pinch of salt to it. Stir thoroughly with a whisk so that the sugar completely dissolves. By the way, if desired, yeast can be added not to flour, but to dissolve them in warm milk. Act as you are more accustomed to.

7. Step 7:

   

   Next, add two eggs to the sweet milk and stir well again.

8. Step 8:

   

   In the center of the flour mixture, we make a "well" and pour liquid ingredients into it.

9. Step 9:

   

   Knead the soft dough.

10. Step 10:

    

    The desktop is slightly sprinkled with flour, spread the dough on top and knead it thoroughly for 10-15 minutes. The dough turns out to be very soft, so if necessary, you can add another 50 g of flour to it, but preferably do not add more. By the way, you can safely knead such dough with a bread maker or a mixer with dough nozzles.

11. Step 11:

    

    We roll the finished kneaded dough into a smooth bun and put it in a greased bowl with vegetable oil. Cover the bowl with a film or a slightly damp towel and leave it warm for 1 hour so that the dough fits.

12. Step 12:

    

    Depending on the ambient temperature and the strength of the yeast, it may take a little more or less time to rise, so we wait until the dough increases at least 2 times.

14. Step 13:

    

    Next, we knead the dough, for this we pull the dough from the edges to the center and so on in a circle. Then we turn the dough over, cover the bowl again with a film or towel and let the dough come up again. The second time the dough fits faster, on average it will take about 30 minutes. By the way, if you have little time, then you can not leave the dough for repeated tincture.

15. Step 14:

    

    The dough that came up for the second time is carefully taken out and divided into equal pieces of the desired size. I divided it into 19 pieces weighing about 50 g each. By the way, the dough turns out soft enough, so that it sticks to your hands while working, lubricate your hands with oil or dust with flour (I used butter).

16. Step 15:

    

    Roll each piece of dough into a smooth ball, cover them with a film on top and leave for 5-10 minutes so that the dough is slightly rested.

17. Step 16:

    

    Forming our buns. We knead each bun of dough slightly with our hands into a small cake, put a candy in the center (I have large candies, so I cut them into 2 parts, although if desired, you can take the whole candy).

18. Step 17:

    

    We seal the edges of the dough and form a round bun.

19. Step 18:

    

    Melt 50 g of butter and let it cool completely. We dip the formed bun into the melted butter, let the excess oil drain. Thanks to this butter, the buns will turn out to be more creamy and in the finished form it will be much easier to divide them among themselves, but, if desired, if you want to reduce the number of calories, then you can skip this step.

20. Step 19:

    

    We put the finished buns in the mold, leaving a little free space between them so that the buns have somewhere to grow. The diameter of my form is 24 cm.

21. Step 20:

    

    Cover the pie form with a film and leave it for 20-30 minutes to rise.

22. Step 21:

    

    The pie that came up is greased with a shaken egg.

23. Step 22:

    

    And bake it in a preheated 170-180 C oven for about 35-45 minutes until a beautiful golden crust.

24. Step 23:

    

    Let our pie cool down to a little warm, lightly sprinkle with powdered sugar (optional) and serve to the table.

25. Step 24:

    

    Our pie Picker with sweets is ready. Bon appetit!
