And someone is crazy about pies. Here I just belong to the latter: it seems to me that pies are the most wonderful dessert. I especially like pies with berries, when there is very little dough, and the predominant amount of toppings. This is exactly how baking turns out if it is based on - shortcrust pastry: crumbly, light, completely unobtrusive. Another plus of such a dough is that it is prepared from very affordable products and quickly enough. And you know, in my practice it has never happened before that shortbread dough does not work out, because it is almost impossible to spoil it. As you already understood, I often make shortcrust pastry pies with berries, especially in season. But it turns out very tasty with frozen berries, which are perfectly stored all winter in the freezer. As an example, I will introduce you to one of my favorite recipes with a photo - a shortbread cherry pie. The pleasant sourness of the berries goes well with tender dough and together they create a very successful flavor composition.

Ingredients:
for the test:
- 300 grams of flour;
- 40 grams of sugar;
- 130 grams of butter;
- 2 tbsp. cold water;
For filling:
- 300 gr pitted cherries;
- 50 grams of sugar;
- 2 tbsp. starch.

Recipe with photo step by step:

Sift the flour and pour it into a container in which we will then form the dough. The container should be high enough to mix the ingredients comfortably.

We need butter at a room temperature, so you should get it out of the refrigerator in advance. If you have not done this, and time is already running out and it is time to do the cake dough, then you can heat the oil in microwave oven... But do not overdo it - the butter should not melt, it only needs to heat up.

Add butter to flour.

We also send sugar there.

Now we need to mix flour, butter and sugar. This can be done in two ways. The first is just with your hands. Yes, you read everything right, with your hands. This is fast enough and not difficult at all (provided that you still brought the oil to room temperature). The second way is to use a mixer for mixing. It will turn out even faster, but you will have to wash the whisks. So choose the method that is closer to you. In both the first and second cases, you should end up with fat crumbs.

Put 4-5 tablespoons in a separate container. spoons of these same crumbs, we will need them later, to decorate the cake. And from the rest of the bulk, we will make the dough.

Add water to the dough crumbs.

And quickly we begin to knead the dough. The mixer won't help us here - we'll have to work with our hands. But do not be discouraged - pretty quickly you will have ready-made dough in your palms.

The dough will be crumbly enough, but still ready for further formation of the base for the cake.

We spread the dough in a round shape and with our hands we spread it along the bottom so that the dough lies in an even layer. Do not forget about the fact that it is necessary to form sides with a height of about 2 cm from the same dough.

We cover the form with the dough with a plastic bag or cling film and send it to the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Then we take out the dough and make pricks with a fork - so that the dough does not bubble up in the oven.

We peel the cherries and let the juice drain. Place the cherries in a deep bowl.

Add sugar and starch to the cherries.

Mix well.

We send the dough to the oven, preheated to 220 degrees, for 7 minutes. During this time, it will slightly change its appearance, but, of course, it will not be completely ready yet.

We put the cherries in a mold, level them so that they lie flat.

Pour fat crumbs on top of the cherries, which we set aside before adding water to the dough.

And we send the form with the dough to the oven, which, as you remember, is preheated to 220 degrees. The baking time of the cake is 25-30 minutes. The top should be browned, and the dough should be completely cooked. The filling will remain liquid at this point, but do not worry, this is only as long as the pie is hot. When it cools down, the filling will harden.

We take out the cake pan from the oven, cool it for 5-10 minutes, and then remove the cake from the mold and cool it to room temperature.

It can now be sliced ​​and served. Bon Appetit!

Tips and tricks:
You can use this recipe as a base for a pie with any filling. Instead of cherries, you can take raspberries, black currants, gooseberries ... This cake is also very tasty with fruits: plums, apples, pears ... Try different fillings to surprise your family with new and interesting pastries every time.
As I wrote, such a cake should be served already cooled down - it is not so tasty when hot, besides, the filling may simply spread. On a plate to a piece berry pie put a scoop of vanilla ice cream - they fit together very well.
