Yeast dough for pies in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to knead rich yeast dough for pies in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Wash the egg under running warm water and baking soda to protect yourself from harmful bacteria. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance so that it comes to room temperature. Beat the egg into a deep bowl. Add sugar and a pinch of salt to improve the taste of the pies. Whisk these ingredients until light bubbles form.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour in refined vegetable oil (odorless). With it, the dough will become smoother and will not stick to your hands much during kneading.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add soft butter. Stir the mixture with a whisk.

4. STEP 4

   

   Heat the milk a little in the microwave or in a saucepan. It should be warm, but not scalding, otherwise the yeast in it will die in the future. Read about all the intricacies of working with yeast in a separate article (link at the end of the recipe).

5. STEP 5

   

   Sift premium wheat flour through a sieve, preferably twice. Thanks to this, it will be saturated with oxygen, and the dough will turn out softer and more elastic. Add dry instant yeast and stir.

6. STEP 6

   

   Combine the dry and liquid mixtures and begin kneading the dough, first with a whisk and then with your hands. Please note that the amount of flour you use may differ from mine. That is, perhaps you will take more or less flour. Therefore, focus on the consistency of the dough. You can read more about flour and its properties in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

7. STEP 7

   

   At first it may seem that the dough is liquid and sticks to your hands too much. But you need to knead for at least 15 minutes!

8. STEP 8

   

   During this time, gluten will be released from the flour, and the dough will become smooth and elastic. It's hard to believe, but between steps 7 and 8 I didn't add an ounce of flour! There's just 20 minutes between them. Cover the dough with a towel and leave to rise for half an hour in a warm place. Then you need to knead the dough with your hands and leave it warm again for half an hour. The dough is ready. I made 12 pies from it.

I decided to make poppy seed buns today. Having searched the website for a dough recipe, I settled on a rich yeast dough for pies in the oven. I mixed it with milk, egg, butter and vegetable oil. It turned out great! The dough rose well, doubling in size in just one hour, I had it proofing in a warm oven, it turned out soft and elastic. Having rolled out the dough into a layer, greased it with vegetable oil, sprinkled with sugar and confectionery poppy seeds. Then I rolled it up, cut it into small portions and placed it on a baking sheet. I baked the buns in the oven until they were golden brown. The buns turned out very tasty! Their crumb is soft, crumbly, and tender. My granddaughter ate three buns at once and loved them! Excellent recipe! I recommend it to everyone! Thank you very much!

Absolutely divine dough recipe. This is the second time I’ve made it, it’s not difficult at all, both times the pies turned out perfect. I make both sweet and savory. According to my taste, I only change the amount of salt, I use 1/2 teaspoon in the dough. And my flour needs 600 gr. The pies are soft and tasty. The child said: divine.
