For example, these:

  • Baguettes.
  • Loaves.

And these days may include birthdays, name days, memorable dates and just visits dear guests who you want to pamper with something delicious.

So, 6 pies, sweet and savory, for gatherings with friends, family celebrations and simply delicious breakfasts, dinners or lunches that you can take with you to work.

Rolls with potatoes and fried onions

These rolls are a large number of fillings in a thin shell of crispy dough. They can be made in advance and frozen, and then just fried. They are good both hot and cold. Great option for breakfast, snack or evening tea. Pay attention to the dough - it is also suitable for making Lenten dumplings.

For the test:
Flour - 2.5-3 cups (glass - 250 ml)
Water - 1 glass
Sesame or olive oil - 2 tbsp. l.
Salt - 1 tsp.

For filling:
Potatoes - 8 medium tubers
Onions - 4 large onions
Vegetable oil for frying
Salt to taste

Ground sweet paprika - a pinch

Boil the potatoes in their skins in advance until tender and cool.

For the dough, sift 2.5 cups of flour into a convenient deep bowl. Mix water, salt and oil. Bring to a boil and pour the boiling mixture into the flour, stirring thoroughly. The dough will turn out torn, lumpy, and will be difficult to knead. It's not scary - leave it for half an hour under a towel, and it will become much more manageable.

Meanwhile, peel the onion and cut into cubes. Fry the onion in vegetable oil, stirring constantly, until it becomes soft and crispy. Peel the boiled potatoes using a potato masher. Add the prepared onion along with the oil in which it was fried, salt, add black pepper and paprika. Stir. The filling should be thick and dense.

Knead the dough. It will become soft and elastic. If the dough sticks, add a few more tablespoons of flour. The finished dough should be rolled out without dusting with flour.

Roll out the dough into thin layers (1.5-2 mm thick), cut into 12x12 cm squares. Assemble the rolls: place a tablespoon of filling on the edge of each square, fold in the side edges and roll up (like stuffed pancakes). Place on a clean dish or towel, seam side down. At this stage, the rolls can be frozen for storage or fried immediately. Pour odorless vegetable oil into the frying pan (it should cover the bottom) and heat well. Fry the rolls: first, seam side down, then the other three sides. Then place them on a plate lined with a paper towel and blot off excess oil. As I already said, you can eat them cold, but hot, with a crispy crust, they are especially good.

Yeast pie with several types of filling

Yeast pies are a classic of the genre, and meatless fillings, of course, are not as interesting and tasty as meat, fish or dairy. What if you try mixing several fillings in one pie? The mushrooms will add flavor to the pie, the carrots will add sweetness, the cabbage will add a slight crunch, and the rice will prevent the dough from getting soggy. It is important to lay the fillings in layers, this will give interesting game tastes and textures.

For the test:
Flour - 4–4.5 cups
Water - 1.5 cups
Dry yeast - 2 tsp.
Vegetable oil - 3 tbsp. l.
Sugar - 3 tbsp. l.
Salt - 1 tsp. (incomplete)

For filling:
Rice - ¼ cup
Onions - 2 pcs.
Young cabbage - 300 g
Carrots - 300 g
Fresh champignons - 250 g
Fresh dill - several sprigs
Salt - to taste
Sugar - 1-2 tsp. (if needed)
Freshly ground black pepper - a pinch
Sweet ground paprika - a pinch
Vegetable oil for frying

To prepare the dough, heat 1.5 cups of water until warm (never hot!). Add sugar and yeast. Leave for 10 minutes. During this time, the yeast will dissolve and begin to act: foam will appear on the surface of the water. Add salt and 4 cups of flour, mix not very thoroughly (it’s easiest to do this with your hands).

Pour in vegetable oil and stir again. At this stage there is no need to achieve homogeneity of the dough, the main thing is that all the flour is moistened. Cover the dough with a towel and leave for 20 minutes in a warm, draft-free place. After 20 minutes, knead on the table, dusting the table with flour if necessary. Leave in a warm place for another 30-40 minutes, then repeat kneading and leave the dough for another half hour in a warm place under a towel. While the dough is rising, prepare the fillings.

Rinse the rice and boil it in your usual way, cool. Cut one onion into small cubes and fry until soft and transparent. Mix onion with rice and add salt to taste.

Chop the second onion and young cabbage as thinly as possible. Place in a deep frying pan, add salt, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and fry, stirring constantly, over medium heat. The cabbage should remain slightly crispy. Season with ground sweet paprika and cool.

Peel the carrots and grate them on a coarse grater or cut them into small cubes. Fry the carrots in two tablespoons of oil until they are completely soft and excess liquid has evaporated. Add salt to taste, add 1-2 teaspoons of sugar if desired (in summer, when carrots are sweet, this is not necessary). Cool.

Wash the champignons, cut them in half and cut each half into slices. Cook the champignons in a frying pan without oil, stirring constantly. They will release quite a lot of water that needs to be evaporated. Once the excess liquid has evaporated, add salt to taste, add 2 tablespoons of oil and fry for 5 minutes. Pepper, add finely chopped dill. Cool.

Knead the dough twice and divide it into two unequal parts: ⅔ for the bottom layer and ⅓ for the top.

Roll out most of the dough into a layer slightly less than a centimeter thick. Transfer to a greased baking sheet. Lay out layers of filling, leaving 5 centimeters free on each edge: first rice, then cabbage, then carrots, upper layer- mushrooms. Roll out the second layer, cover the filling with it, lift the edges of the bottom layer and pinch the pie around the edges. Be sure to leave it to rise for 20-25 minutes under a towel.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.

Then brush the pie with strong, sweet black tea and bake for 40–50 minutes until golden brown. Brush the finished pie again with strong sweet tea and leave to “rest” under a towel for at least 20 minutes.

Mediterranean pie with eggplant and sweet peppers

Several years ago, I discovered several unusual recipes for Lenten dough on the Internet. Having compared them, I highlighted general principle preparation: an equal volume of liquid (juice, water, wine, beer) and vegetable oil is mixed with double the volume of flour with the addition of soda or baking powder. The dough prepared in this way is soft, buttery, fragile and very tender. It tastes like good shortbread dough. I use this dough in sweet and savory pies, and make cookies from it. And the first recipe is an open pie in Mediterranean style with eggplants and sweet peppers.

For the test:
Flour - 2 cups
Dry white wine - ½ cup
Olive oil (can be replaced with odorless vegetable oil) - ½ cup
Baking powder - 1 tbsp. l.
Sugar - 2 tbsp. l.
Salt - 1 tsp.
Dried basil (or oregano, or a mixture of Italian herbs) - 1 tsp.

For filling:
Onions - 4 large onions
Salt - to taste
Sugar - 3 tbsp. l.
Wine vinegar - 3 tbsp. l.
Olive oil - 5 tbsp. l.
Eggplants - 2 small eggplants
Red onion - 1 onion
Bell pepper - 1 large
Freshly ground black pepper - a pinch

Mix 1 liter of water and 1 tablespoon of salt in a saucepan. Cut the eggplants into slices 0.5 cm thick and soak in brine, pressing down with a plate so that they do not float.

Peel the onion and cut into thin half rings. Simmer in 2 tablespoons of oil, covered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Prepare the dough. Mix flour, baking powder, salt and dried herbs in a bowl. Mix in a separate container olive oil, wine and sugar (2 tbsp.). Shake with a fork until the water and oil are lightly combined. Pour into the flour mixture and knead the dough with a spoon. You don't need to achieve the perfect consistency, just combine all the ingredients. Cover the dough with a towel and leave for half an hour.

Check the onions. It should release liquid and become soft. Turn up the heat and remove the lid. Fry for 5-10 minutes, then add wine vinegar, sugar (3 tbsp) and salt to taste. Simmer for another 10–15 minutes. The mixture should be thick, dark and sweet.

Squeeze the eggplants and dry with a paper towel. Fry the circles in a dry frying pan (you can use a grill pan) in portions for a minute on each side. The eggplants will become denser and softer.

Red onion and bell pepper peel and cut into large squares. Fry over high heat in 2 tablespoons olive oil for 3 minutes. Vegetables should remain crispy.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Grease a baking sheet with vegetable oil. Knead the dough and spread it with your hands on the baking sheet, helping yourself with a small rolling pin or a round glass. You should get a layer 7–8 mm thick.

Distribute the onion mixture on top, place peppers and onions and eggplants on it. Salt, sprinkle with black pepper and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes. This pie is especially good warm with white wine.

Apple pie with semolina

Yes, yes, it is really very tasty, and also very simple. For this recipe you will need margarine - there are now several types in stores consisting entirely of vegetable fats. Well, outside of Lent, it is better to make such a pie with natural butter.

Sugar - 1 glass
Salt - a pinch

Peel the apples and grate them on a coarse grater. Mix flour, semolina, salt, sugar and baking powder. Add cinnamon if desired. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

Generously grease a round springform pan with a piece of margarine. Place a small (no more than half a centimeter) layer of dry mixture into the mold. Spread a layer of grated apples over the mixture, then again a layer of dry mixture, thinner than the first. Alternate layers of apples and dry mixture. The thinner the layers, the tastier the pie will be. The last layer should be made from a dry mixture and slightly thicker than the rest.

Place thin pieces of margarine on top of the mixture, trying to evenly cover the entire surface of the pie. Bake in the oven for about an hour until golden brown. Run a knife along the sides and remove the ring from the mold. Let the pie cool completely before serving.

Open pie with lingonberries and apples

Another variation of pie with lean shortcrust pastry, this time - lingonberry-apple. This pie must be cooled before serving: during the cooling process, lingonberry juice is absorbed into the filling, it sets and becomes more homogeneous.

For the test:

For the filling, mix spices, 2 tablespoons sugar and breadcrumbs.

Peel the apple and cut into small cubes. Mix with frozen lingonberries and remaining sugar.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Round shape with high sides, grease with vegetable oil. Roll out the dough into a flat cake with a diameter larger than the pan. Place the flatbread in a baking dish and shape the dough into a basket with sides. Sprinkle the bottom with a mixture of breadcrumbs and place apples and lingonberries on top. Bake at 200 degrees for 25 minutes, then reduce heat to 150 and bake for another 25-30 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the pie in it, still warm, for 10 minutes, then remove and cool.

Melt 100 g of chocolate in a water bath and pour into a bowl. Mix with a whisk. Add flour and baking powder, beat with a mixer. Add cherries and stir with a spoon. Pour the dough into the mold and immediately place it in the oven for about an hour. Check the readiness of the sponge cake with a toothpick - it should come out of the cake dry, without sticking crumbs. Cool the pan with the finished biscuit on a wire rack.

Ingredients:

For the test

  • Rye flour - 375 g
  • Wheat flour - 125 g
  • Cane sugar - 120 g
  • Vegetable oil – 100 ml
  • Hot water - 1/2 cup
  • Ground bran - 2-3 tsp
  • Sweet and sour apples – 3 pcs.
  • Walnuts – 100 g
  • Ground cinnamon - 1-2 tsp
  • Cane sugar - 50 g

Preparation:

Mix rye and wheat flour in one container.

Add sugar and vegetable oil.

Cane brown sugar can be replaced with regular sugar, but then use a little less of it.

Stir and begin to slowly add water, kneading the dough.

The dough will be quite elastic. It's this light brown color, thanks to the rye flour.

When the dough is ready, leave it to rest for half an hour, covering it so that it does not dry out.

At this time, let's start filling and preparing for baking.

To do this, grease the baking dish with vegetable oil. And sprinkle it all evenly with ground bran, even the sides.

This way the cake will be beautiful and will not stick to the pan.

Roll out the dough and place it inside the mold. Cut the apples into thin slices and arrange them beautifully overlapping each other.

You need to chop the walnuts a little and sprinkle them over the filling. We also sprinkle it with sugar and cinnamon on top.

We tuck the sides nicely, removing excess. Place whole walnuts around the circumference.

Already at this stage it turns out very beautifully!

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and place our pie there for about 30 minutes.

Depending on your oven, your cooking time may vary.

The result is unparalleled beauty! Such food is pleasing to the eye and soul and good for the body.

The pie turns out moderately sweet, with a crispy crust and a delicate juicy filling.

Post – best time for lean baking. Such baked goods are better absorbed by the body than short-lived ones made with eggs, butter and cream. At the same time, such baked goods will add variety to the Lenten menu.

Lenten pie with cherries

For this cherry pie we will prepare. To do this, mix a packet of dry French yeast, half a teaspoon of salt, half a glass of sugar and half a glass of vegetable oil in two glasses of warm water. Add enough flour to form an elastic dough. Cover it with a napkin and let it rise in a warm place.

Meanwhile, wash the cherries in running water. We take out the bones from it. Knead the risen dough and roll it out like a pie. Place the cherry on one half of the rolled out dough in a greased baking dish, sprinkle the top with powdered sugar mixed with a dessert spoon of starch. Cover with the second part of the rolled out dough. Lubricate the top with vegetable oil. Place in the oven to bake.

Lenten pie with apples

To make this pie we will use the same type of dough as above. While the dough is rising, you need to wash the apples, cut them into slices, removing the core. We arrange the apples on the rolled out dough in the same way as the cherries in the previous recipe. You just don’t need to add starch to the filling, since apples don’t produce as much juice as cherries. Sprinkle apples with sugar, cover with a sheet of rolled out dough, grease with vegetable oil, and place in the oven to bake.

Lenten pie with cabbage

We will make the dough for this pie the same as according to previous recipes, but we will add a little less sugar - a quarter of a glass, not half of it. While the dough is rising, chop white cabbage thin. Place it in a frying pan with vegetable oil and fry over medium heat. Meanwhile, chop the onion and add it to the fried cabbage. Stir the vegetables while they fry to ensure even cooking. Lightly salt the filling and pepper it. When it has cooled down, you can put it on a rolled out sheet of dough and cover it with a second sheet, pinch the edges and send it to bake in the oven.

Tip: if you want to get a golden hue to Lenten pies, as if they were brushed with egg before baking, put a little sugar in a strong tea brew (for sweet pastries) and brush the pie with this solution five minutes before it is ready in the oven. If the baked goods are not sweet, there is no need to add sugar to the brew.

Lenten pie in a slow cooker

We suggest making this pie with carrots to add variety to the Lenten menu. Mix one carrot grated on a fine grater with an apple grated on a coarse grater. Add to them a little less than a glass of sugar, 3-4 tablespoons of vegetable oil, a pinch of salt, vanillin on the tip of a knife, one and a half glasses of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, lemon or orange zest, if you wish, but you can do without citrus fruits .

The dough should be neither liquid nor thick. So that it spreads evenly over the multicooker bowl. Place the resulting mixture into the multicooker. Turn on the “baking” mode (on some multicookers “frying”). Cook until baked. This pie can be turned over from the multicooker bowl onto a plate, cut into pieces, and decorated fresh berries and powdered sugar or pour over syrup.

They are better absorbed by the body than quick food, and have a bright taste. Lenten baked goods are prepared from yeast, shortbread, yeast-free, puff pastry. They come in several types: closed and open, salty and sweet. Instead of butter add corn, sunflower, olive, do not add eggs and dairy products. You can cook them in the oven or in a modern kitchen assistant - a multicooker.

The five most commonly used ingredients in recipes are:

Berries are used to fill pies. juicy fruits, mushrooms, cabbage, potatoes, eggplants, tomatoes, zucchini, sweet peppers, fish, citrus zest and vanillin are indispensable. Be sure to add a lot of fresh herbs, green onions, aromatic spices. Homemade baked goods with dried fruits are very tasty and sweet: prunes, dried apricots, raisins, figs. It has a magical aroma that beckons you to taste a piece of this culinary masterpiece. You can feed a large family with this delicacy; it is served to festive table, treated to a family meal.
