Honeysuckle Pie. Home Recipes

Do you think that “rejuvenating” fruits and berries are only found in parables? But no. In fact, you can meet them too. For example, a small oblong blue berry, the name of which was formed from two fundamental words for a person: “life” and “youth”. It turned out - honeysuckle. Simple and clear. This berry contains an important and quite rare microelement that is responsible for the condition of our skin, hair, nails, the normal functioning of organs and the health of the entire body as a whole - selenium. The substance is called the “elixir of life and youth” because of its numerous necessary parameters.

What kind of berry is this anyway?

Honeysuckle is a promising product not only for Russia, but also for all CIS countries (the Commonwealth of Independent States is a regional international organization (international treaty) designed to regulate cooperative relations between states that were formerly part of the USSR) . Unknown to society ten years ago, these days it is becoming popular in the market. Even experienced doctors often recommend that clients eat berries, because they are a storehouse of essential vitamins and microelements. Having studied the biochemical composition of honeysuckle in detail, scientists concluded that it is irreplaceable in dietary and therapeutic nutrition. It contains a lot of organic acids: oxalic, citric, malic, succinic. Also essential sugars and P-active polyphenols. The berry is rich in magnesium and phosphorus, calcium and potassium, iodine and sodium.

Honeysuckle Pie

Honeysuckle pie is an unsurpassed recipe, simple and easy. Usually there is no housewife for whom it does not work the first time. The main advantage of baking is its sweet and sour taste, which makes it unique and popular. And the airiness, softness and nutritional value of the pie will appeal to all gourmets and gourmands. It’s not for nothing that the dessert is called “royal pastry” - it mixes the dough and the inside so successfully that you’ll simply lick your fingers.

Main ingredients

Very few of them will be useful. To knead the dough, you need to prepare about 800 grams of ordinary flour. It must be first grade, without lumps and various additives. You should also purchase compressed yeast - for baking we use 1 tablespoon of the product. In addition, you will need sugar - 75-100 grams, milk or drink - 2.5 cups, unrefined vegetable oil - half a glass, a little salt. Some housewives also add baking powder or a pinch of soda to the dough. In principle, they will not be superfluous, but it is possible to do without them. As for the oil, specifically unrefined oil is taken for production due to its nutritional and necessary parameters.

The honeysuckle pie also includes a berry filling. Therefore, you need to go to the market or hypermarket in search of this product. Honeysuckle is sometimes difficult to find on store shelves, but still it is not so unique these days. Buy half a kilogram of berries. The entrails also contain 200 grams of sweet sand – so don’t forget about that. Once all the ingredients are collected on your countertop, you can begin the most basic part - kneading the dough and making the inside.

Making a pie

Let's start with the test. Take the flour and carefully sift it through a sieve. Add salt and sugar to it. Dissolve compressed yeast in a glass of milk or kefir, add a spoonful of sugar to it, mix well and leave for 5 minutes. After the mixture has risen well, carefully pour it into the flour. And at the very end, add vegetable oil and the remaining milk product. Mix the resulting mass until smooth. If the dough is not elastic enough, add a little flour to it. Then cover with a napkin and leave on the table for half an hour.

Layer cake with honeysuckle

Another exciting recipe. Its highlight is that the honeysuckle pie is prepared on the basis of puff pastry and with the addition of cream. To begin with, you will need 300 grams of ordinary puff pastry. It can be prepared independently, but if time is short, it is better to purchase it. The store-bought version is no worse than the homemade one, and it also saves a lot of precious minutes and your energy. After you have obtained the puff pastry, you need to roll it out and place it on the oiled bottom of the baking dish. Place the dough in an oven preheated to 200º and bake it there for 10 minutes. Cool.

Sand "option"

A good recipe, especially for those who, for whatever reason, do not like puff pastry or yeast dough. To make a sand base you will need: 300 grams of plain flour, 150 grams of butter, 100 grams of sugar, one egg, a tablespoon of sour cream, half a packet of baking powder, a little salt. As for the inside, stock up on the following ingredients: 300 grams of honeysuckle, 250 grams of sour cream, 100 grams of sugar, 2 eggs, a bag of vanilla sugar and 2 tablespoons of starch. When everything is ready, start manufacturing.
