Lemon pie in a slow cooker

I have already shared with you various recipes for baking with lemon, and now I am offering another option - we are preparing a lemon pie in a slow cooker. Delicate, porous, shaggy sponge cake with lemon zest, soaked in homemade sweet and sour syrup. This pie can be served with tea or simply used as a base for a cake, cut into several layers.

I offer this usual recipe for fragrant baked goods for a multicooker: I have one of the most common models - Scarlett SC-411. The power of the electrical appliance is 700 W, and the bowl size is 4 liters. But the time for making lemon pie in a slow cooker may vary from that indicated in the recipe, depending on the power of your assistant.

Ingredients:

Lemon sponge cake:

Chicken eggs (5 pieces)
Premium wheat flour (200 grams)
Sugar(150 grams)
Sunflower oil (5 tablespoons)
Baking powder (10 grams)
Lemon zest (2 tablespoons)

Lemon soak:

Water(150 ml)
Sugar(150 grams)
Lemon juice (80 ml)

Making a dish step by step with photos:

To make a lemon sponge cake in a slow cooker, we will need the following ingredients: premium wheat flour, chicken eggs, granulated sugar, baking powder, water, unflavoured vegetable oil, and a couple of large lemons.

First, prepare the dry mixture for the biscuit: mix 200 grams of wheat flour with 10 grams (less than a tablespoon) of baking powder, sift through a sieve. I wrote in this recipe how to create baking powder at home.

After this, wash and dry the lemons well (2-3 pieces may come in handy - depending on the size of the fruit). Using a small grater, carefully remove the zest - the outermost yellowish layer of the skin. Just do not touch the snow-white layer - it gives bitterness. We cut the lemons themselves crosswise into two parts and squeeze out the juice using any convenient method, which we strain from the pulp and seeds.

Pour 150 grams of sugar into a bowl for kneading dough and add crushed lemon zest to it.

Grind everything with a spoon, fork or whisk so that the lemon zest better gives its own flavor to the finished pie.

Next, break 5 chicken eggs into a bowl. I use medium-sized eggs (closer to large ones) - 50-55 grams each.

Beat chicken eggs with lemon sugar using a mixer at high speed until thick, light foam, about 5-7 minutes. Depending on the type and power of the mixer (manual or stationary, like mine), it may take a different amount of time, but in the end you should end up with a very airy mass, which increases in volume a couple of times, and the mixture resembles condensed milk. The height and porosity of the finished lemon sponge cake depends on the whipping properties.

Then add refined vegetable oil (I use sunflower oil) (we leave 1 teaspoon for greasing the multicooker bowl or baking dish). Gently stir the butter into the egg mixture.

Finally, sift the flour mixed with baking powder.

You need to stir this dough carefully, but at the same time quite quickly - scoop it up with a spatula from bottom to top, as if folding it. Never, under any circumstances, prepare biscuit dough in a food processor - nothing good will come of it! The correct dough for lemon sponge cake comes out tender, fluffy, and airy. It holds its shape and lazily flows off the shoulder blade like a wide ribbon.

Grease the multicooker bowl or baking dish with vegetable oil (we left a teaspoon) and pour our dough into it. You need to bake the lemon sponge cake on the Baking mode (in my slow cooker for 50 minutes). If you have the most powerful device, 35-40 minutes may be enough, so at the end, check readiness by quickly opening the valve (not the lid!).

The finished sponge cake comes out light, shaggy, airy and unusually fragrant.

Let it sit in the pan for a few minutes, then remove it while still hot using the steam insert.

This is the tallest and most delicious handsome man that comes out of this recipe. But, in fact, this is a lemon sponge cake, and we need a pie, so we generously soak the still warm pastry with lemon syrup.

To make lemon syrup, we need regular drinking water, sweet sand and lemon juice, which we have already squeezed out. I managed to get 80 ml of juice from 2 large lemons.

Heat the water (you can pour it from a kettle), dissolve the sugar in it, add lemon juice and mix everything well until the sweet crystals dissolve. In total, a little less than 400 ml of syrup comes out, but other times I will make it even more so that the pie comes out not juicy, but downright wet.

Before soaking, it is not necessary to cool either the syrup or the biscuit - the baked goods will not become soggy and will not turn into porridge. You can pour it from a spoon (this is exactly what I did at first), but it’s most convenient to pour the lemon syrup into a small jug and pour directly from it. There is no need to pierce the biscuit with a toothpick for better absorption of water - it already absorbs everything instantly.

Well, the fragrant, tender, juicy lemon pie, cooked in a slow cooker, is ready. You can sprinkle it with sweet powder or decorate it with lemon slices - invite your family to drink tea!

By the way, in the absence of a multicooker, you can cook lemon pie in the oven. Take a not very wide round (you can also use a square or rectangular) baking dish (ideally 21-24 centimeters) and cook the baked goods at 170-180 degrees for 40-45 minutes, checking the readiness with a wooden toothpick. Polinochka, thank you very much for this fragrant and very tasty order. Cook for your health and bon appetit, friends!

Lemongrass pie in a slow cooker

Lemongrass pie in a slow cooker is a savory pie that consists of a sponge base and an interior made from lemons and sugar. Preparing lemon cake is unusually simple and quick, and you will need few ingredients.

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
1 cup of sugar
3 testicles
2 tablespoons sour cream
50 g butter
1 tablespoon baking powder
vanillin - optional

two lemons
one glass of sugar

In the recipe I used a 200 ml glass.

How to cook lemongrass pie in a slow cooker.

Melt the butter in the microwave or in a multicooker bowl.

Beat the eggs with sugar with a mixer into a fluffy snow-white mass. I beat with a mixer at the highest speed - 5 minutes.

Pour oil into the beaten egg mass and add two tablespoons of sour cream. Mix with a spoon, whisk or mixer at low speed.

Then add flour, baking powder and vanillin evenly.

Knead a thin dough.

Grease the bowl with butter; I didn’t grease it because I had previously melted butter in it. Pour out the dough. Insert the bowl with dough into the multicooker, close the lid, set the “baking” mode

Bake the pie in a Panasonic multicooker for 65 minutes.

While the pie is baking in the slow cooker, prepare the impregnation for the lemongrass.

To prevent the lemon cake from becoming bitter, you need to remove the zest and the snow-white bitter part from the lemons, remove the seeds, and beat the lemon with sugar in a blender. When I was preparing the impregnation for the pie, I thought that 2 lemons would be a lot, but in the end all the lemon syrup was gone))

After the signal, take out the pie, cool slightly and cut into two cakes.

The lemongrass sponge cake came out very tasty and tender. You can safely use this recipe as a base for any cake.

Soak any shortbread with lemon soaking and leave to soak for half an hour - an hour.

The Lemongrass pie in the slow cooker came out very tasty, tender and juicy due to the lemon impregnation.
