Grated Pie
Creative Grated Pie is a testament to the artistry of baking. With its sweet, jammy filling and delicate grated topping, it’s a dessert that leaves a lasting impression.
Ingredients
- 2 pcs large-size eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup currant jam or your preferred jam
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 7 oz softened butter
- ⅓ tsp vanilla extract optional
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp vinegar
Instructions
For dough:
- Start by grating the softened butter, a process that will give your pie an exquisite crumbly texture. This finely grated butter will effortlessly blend with the other ingredients, creating a harmonious base for our pie.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated butter, eggs, sugar, baking soda, vinegar, and optional vanilla extract. This medley of ingredients forms the heart of our pie, delivering a sweet and tangy note that will resonate with every bite.
- Gradually introduce 4 cups of all-purpose flour to the mixture, gently folding it in. The flour melds with the other ingredients, creating a soft, pliable dough that’s ready to be transformed into our pie’s foundation.
- Divide the dough into two portions: one larger (3/4) and one smaller (1/4). This division ensures that we’ll have enough dough for both the crust and the grated topping.
- Now, take the smaller portion of dough and add the remaining flour gradually. This step allows the dough to reach the perfect consistency. If time allows, pop this portion into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. It will become more manageable and easier to work with.
Assembling:
- Preheat your oven to a glorious 390 ℉ (200°C). While it warms up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, setting the stage for our culinary masterpiece.
- Roll out the larger portion of dough onto the parchment paper, creating a pie’s crust. This canvas should be around ½ inches thick, providing a sturdy foundation for our sweet symphony.
- Spread the currant jam evenly over the dough. The jam’s luscious consistency, reminiscent of ripe summer berries, adds a fruity crescendo to our pie.
- With the smaller portion of dough, grated to perfection, sprinkle it generously over the jam. This crumbly topping not only adds a visual flair but also provides a delightful contrast in texture.
- Gently slide your pie creation into the preheated oven. The heat will transform our ingredients into a harmonious dessert symphony. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top achieves a golden brown crescendo.
- Once our Creative Grated Pie emerges from the oven, allow it to cool. This time of rest is essential for the flavors to meld, resulting in a dessert that’s as delightful to the palate as it is to the eye.
