Sour Milk Pie

Prepare all the ingredients for making a pie with sour milk. If you don't have sour milk, you can make it like this: heat the milk, place it in a warm place, and add a little sour cream (2 tablespoons per liter of milk) and 2 tablespoons of sugar. If you don't have sour cream, you can sour the milk using a slice of black bread in a similar way. Mix everything together. The milk will sour in 3-4 hours, but it will reach its best consistency in 8 hours, so it is most convenient to let it sour overnight. It is better to use milk in bottles or, if possible, use fresh milk, as the result will be achieved faster. In this recipe, sour milk can be replaced with kefir or matzoni if you don't have time to wait.

In a deep mixing bowl, pour sugar and beat in the eggs.

In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with sugar until a homogeneous creamy state is achieved.

Add sour milk.

Continue beating until a uniform mass is formed.

Add sifted flour and soda and continue mixing. Instead of regular wheat flour, you can experiment with other types such as oat, buckwheat, corn, or rye flour. This will add new flavor nuances and nutrients to the pie.

The dough made with sour milk for the pie is ready. It should be quite liquid. You can experiment with the dough composition by adding nuts, raisins, or chocolate. Simply incorporate them into the dough before adding the fruits.

Cut the apples into small pieces. In this recipe, you can use any fruits or berries, for example, it will be very tasty with cherries or sour cherries. And to give the pie an additional aroma and interesting taste, you can add some spices to the dough. Cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, or cardamom - choose your favorite spices and experiment with their combinations. Personally, I like this pie without any additional ingredients and additives.

Grease the baking dish with butter or line it with parchment paper. Pay attention to the size of the dish. If you have several different-sized dishes, choose a dish considering that the dough will rise during baking. Do not fill the dish completely, leave some space for expansion.

Mix the apples well with the dough.

Transfer the mixture of dough and apples to the baking dish.

Bake the pie with sour cream in a preheated oven at a temperature of 180 degrees with bottom heat and top heat if possible, for 60-75 minutes. If the top of the pie starts to darken, reduce the temperature or cover the top with foil to allow the bottom to bake. The readiness should be checked with a wooden skewer. When it comes out of the center of the pie without any dough residue, then the pie is ready. If there is raw dough on the skewer, leave the pie in the oven for a few more minutes and check again.

Wait for the pie to cool down without removing it from the mold, to avoid damaging it. Once the pie has cooled, remove it from the mold.

When serving the pie, you can sprinkle it with powdered sugar to make it slightly sweeter and more beautiful. You can also serve it with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries. This will add brightness, and the pie will look even more appetizing. Enjoy your meal.
