But I’m wondering, Arina Koten, when you put lingonberries on the dough before baking, shouldn’t you sprinkle them with sugar, they’re not such a sweet berry, but rather the opposite - sour. I would sprinkle it with sugar, or bake it with sugar in the microwave first.

And besides the fact that lingonberries need to be sprinkled with sugar, since they are a sour berry, it is also advisable to roll them in starch, because they release juice and the dough becomes wet and looks like raw. Well, the top of the pie is clearly not what is in the recipe.

Thank you, Arina Koten, I hope we didn’t offend you? Delicious year-old lingonberries, I tried them soaked in the north in winter, they keep very well in water, Pushkin loved cloudberries, but I think he ate lingonberries with pleasure too! Thanks for the recipe!

I make a similar pie, only always with frozen lingonberries (where can I get fresh ones in winter?). I don’t defrost the berries, I mix them with 2 tbsp. tablespoons of starch and spread on the dough. I pour the filling on top - you can use the same as in the recipe, but I add egg and vanillin to the filling. The cake turns out not soggy, with delicious vanilla pudding on top. I also really enjoyed making this pie with blueberries (also frozen) - it’s absolutely delicious. Only in this case do I add a spoonful of flour to the filling (for some reason I did this once, I liked it, and have continued to do this ever since). By the way, this is our family’s favorite berry pie. My husband, however, is still obsessed with the fruit basket (sand base with some kind of filling on top and fresh fruit glazed with jelly).
