Sand cake "under a fur coat. Cherry Shortcake with Protein Foam Shortcake with Protein Foam

Shortcrust pastry pies are easy to make. Shortbread dough is suitable for any filling, but it is especially convenient for juicy berries, as it has a dense structure that prevents leakage. Cherry shortbread pie will delight you with a sweet, slightly crumbly dough with a fragrant sourness of the filling.

We offer to bake a cherry pie with protein foam in the oven from shortcrust pastry in butter with an egg.

Cooking cherry shortcake with protein foam

1 .Mash the softened butter with sugar, add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla sugar and, adding flour, knead the dough. It is not necessary to knead for a long time, as soon as it begins to gather in a lump, stop kneading.

2. Lubricate the cake pan with butter and spread the dough in it with a thickness of 1 cm with the transition to the sides.

3. Remove the pits from the cherries and drain in a colander to separate excess juice. Then lay out on the dough in the form.

4. Put the cake in the oven preheated to 190 degrees and bake for 40-45 minutes.

5. Remove the cherry shortcake from the oven, sprinkle with powdered sugar mixed with vanilla sugar.

1. Divide the butter into small cubes. Add granulated sugar and grind until a homogeneous white mass is obtained, we will try to grind so that the grains of sugar dissolve better in the total mass. The main secret of tender shortcrust pastry is that it must be prepared from cold butter.

2. Separate the proteins from the yolks, add the latter to the oil base, mix the ingredients thoroughly. Put the squirrels in the fridge to keep them cold.

3. Sift the flour into the resulting dough base. It is better to sift it through a sieve so that the dough is light and fluffy.

4. Quickly knead the dough and put it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. When kneading and rolling, it is important to sprinkle the surface with flour as little as possible, try to do it quickly so that it remains tender and pliable.

5. If possible, squeeze the juice from the cherries so that the cake remains dry inside.

6. Lubricate the baking sheet with butter, roll out the dough for the base of the pie right on it.

7. Lightly sprinkle the dough with starch, it will not allow the juice from the cherries to spread.

8. Gently spread the berries over the entire surface of the dough and put the baking sheet in the oven, heated to a temperature of about 100 degrees, for 20 minutes.

9. Let's start forming a layer of meringue. We take out the remaining proteins from the refrigerator, it is important that they are cold, then the meringue whips better. We put them in the mixer bowl and start whipping the protein mass. When the protein is whipped enough, the foam will become white and strong, we begin to pour sugar into the mass with a tablespoon. It should be white and strong.

10. We take out the base of the pie from the oven, cool it slightly and cover it with the finished protein mass on top, using a spoon or a culinary syringe we form patterns. We again put our cake in a preheated oven, but we reduce the gas, make sure that the top layer of meringue does not burn, it should lightly brown.

11. We determine the readiness of the pie by the top layer of meringue, when it does not stick to the hands, the pastry is ready. Take it out of the oven, let it cool.

12. You need to cut the cake when it has completely cooled down. Bon appetit!

This type of baking has not only a delicate texture and excellent taste, but also a high calorie content. But this does not diminish those who like to enjoy a piece of delicious pie, because, as you know, the positive emotions that give rise to these delicate delicacies are the basis of life's happiness.

2. Recipe for Shortbread Pie with Cherry and Meringue:

Grated pie with jam- one of the most common recipes. Because shortcrust pastry pies are usually prepared hastily and they turn out delicious. Many love shortbread dough, I personally have such a dough one of my favorites in baking, even for pies, even for shortbread cookies.

superhostess offers you step by step recipe for grated pie with photo, described with its amendments and additions, exactly as this wonderful shortcrust pastry pie

This jam pie was supposed to bear the proud name of Gagarin's Pie. Should have, but didn't. Pie recipe, which caught my eye under this name, turned out to be not at all the pie for which he pretended to be. And I had to change the recipe a little during the baking process.

Now I'm sharing mine with you shortcake recipe with jam or marmalade, it turned out, however, very tasty. Now it's up to you - cook, taste and evaluate

Pie with jam recipe with photo. Grated Shortbread Pie:

Pie Ingredients:

Jam (thick), marmalade, jam or confiture - for filling (it is better to take with sourness)

Potato starch - for sprinkling jam filling

A pinch of salt - for the meringue

A pinch of citric acid - for meringue

For sand dough:

Flour - 2.5 cups (a glass of 200 grams, which includes 140-150 grams of sifted flour)

A pinch of salt

1 teaspoon baking soda (no top)

200 gr. butter or margarine (chilled)

Eggs - 4 pieces (whites for filling, yolks - for dough)

Milk - 0.5 cup (approximate amount) Note: a small amount of milk may be needed if the dough is hard and will not mix into a lump

Sugar - 1 cup (half a cup - for the dough (mixed with yolks), the other half of the cup - for the filling (meringue)

Cocoa powder - 1.5-2 tablespoons (in the dough)

Grated pie - recipe for pie with jam (jam):

Sift flour along with baking soda.

Here we rub the butter on a grater, add salt

And rub the mass with your hands to get a small crumb.

In another cup, mix the yolks with half a glass of sugar and grind well, preferably to such a state that there are no sugar grains left.

We combine both masses, mix.

If the dough cannot be gathered into a lump, pour milk in small portions until the dough can be mixed, but at the same time so that it does not turn out to be too soft.

We divide the dough into three unequal parts: two identical - smaller and one larger (this part will be the basis for the pie). Mix one of the small parts with cocoa.

The finished dough does not mix well with cocoa, and uneven coloring may result. Do not worry, this will not affect the taste of the pie and do not knead this piece for a long time so as not to disturb the structure of the shortcrust pastry.

We put the largest piece in the refrigerator, wrap the smaller pieces, each separately, in polyethylene, and put them in the freezer (for about 1 hour).

While the dough is freezing, make meringue for pie.

Start beating the egg whites with a mixer at a low speed, gradually moving to a higher speed. While beating, add a pinch of salt. When the proteins increase in volume, gradually add sugar and beat until we get meringue. At the end of whipping, add a pinch of citric acid. Meringue should be whipped until stable, as in the photo. Look, such an interesting figure turned out when I shook the meringue from the mixer blades into the total mass. As you can see, the meringue perfectly “holds its shape”.

Grease a baking dish with oil. We take out the largest piece from the refrigerator and rub it directly into the mold on the largest grater, evenly distributing it over the entire surface and making small sides. Then you can lightly press down and distribute this layer with your hands.

Spread it with jam.

Sprinkle the surface of the jam with starch. Next, rub the second piece of dough with cocoa on top of the jam.

On it, carefully spread a layer of meringue with a spoon and level it.

This time I decided to cook the most delicate and crumbly shortcake with jam “under a fur coat” from crushed nuts and whipped proteins.

The result is not only very tasty, but also quite spectacular homemade cakes that can decorate any tea party. Shortcrust pastry is a great topic for culinary fantasies, because thanks to the different proportions of butter and flour, adding or not adding eggs, cottage cheese to the recipe, you can even get completely different options for such baking.

I additionally added two yolks to the shortbread pie “under a fur coat”, which contributed to the most delicate structure of the finished baking.

For a sweet layer, except for raspberry, you can use any other, the main thing is that it should not be too liquid.

So, to prepare a sand cake "under a fur coat" we need the following ingredients:

• 250 g wheat flour
• a pinch of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 150 g butter at room temperature
• 100 g sugar
• sachet of vanilla sugar
• 2 yolks
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest (optional, it will add a great lemony flavor to the batter and top egg white)
• about 200 g raspberry jam (or any other)
• a handful of crushed almonds (they can be replaced with other nuts)
• 4 egg whites
• a few drops of lemon juice
• 2 tbsp. spoons of powdered sugar

Sand cake "under a fur coat" from proteins: preparation

For shortcrust pastry, beat butter with egg yolks, sugar, vanilla with a mixer, add 1 tsp. a spoonful of lemon zest.

On top of the sweet butter mass, sift the flour, pre-mixed with baking powder and salt.

Knead the elastic dough, wrap it with cling film and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour.

Then preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

In a separate container (it is very important that it is dry), beat the egg whites with a few drops of lemon juice with a mixer until a stable foam, gradually pouring the powdered sugar in a thin stream.

Should not be too sweet, because there is enough sugar in the jam.

We cover the baking sheet with parchment, spread the dough on it and roll it right here into a thin rectangular layer, almost the size of the baking sheet.

We distribute raspberry jam on top of the dough, sprinkle it with crushed nuts and carefully spread the whipped proteins with the top layer.

We bake a shortbread pie “under a fur coat” for about 25 minutes, until the surface of the protein coating is golden.

Sprinkle the top of hot pastries with 1 teaspoon lemon zest for extra flavor.

Cool the cake completely and cut into squares before serving.
