Unleavened kefir pies. Kefir pies fried in a frying pan

The recipe for kefir pies will come in handy if you need to quickly prepare a treat for a large company. Its advantage is that the housewife does not have to wait long for the dough to rise, because time is precious.

Although yeast dough is airy, before you start shaping it into pies, you need to tinker with it, and most importantly, have a few hours left. Of course, when guests are already on the doorstep, every minute counts, so the topic of our conversation today is a recipe for pies, which includes kefir dough.

I personally tested the recipe for kefir pies, so you can have no doubt about its taste. I recommend preparing the dough for pies and making baked goods from it with a variety of fillings, ranging from regular mashed potatoes to fruit jam.

Let's start with the first recipe

The main ingredient in the recipe is, of course, kefir! This is the topic of our conversation today!

So, let's get started and, before kneading the dough for the pies, let's prepare the ingredients:

This is: 3.5 cups of flour; 250 ml kefir; a tablespoon of sugar; 2 eggs; 10 ml vegetable oil; a teaspoon of soda; pinch of salt

To fry pies with kefir, you will need 100 ml of vegetable oil.

Since you will prepare the dough for kefir pies in a short time, first of all make the filling. In my family, the filling, which consists of rice and minced meat, is very popular, but you can fill the pies with whatever you want.

For the filling you need: 250 g minced meat; 1/3 cup rice; one onion and one carrot

Don't forget to salt the filling and season it with pepper and aromatic herbs. Plan your time and keep in mind that it will take you at least half an hour to prepare the filling.

You need:

Boil the rice in salted water and rinse it under the tap.
Make a frying mixture for pies from carrots and onions, followed by adding minced meat. Keep the pan on the fire with the ingredients for several minutes until the minced meat changes its original color.
Season with salt and pepper and add rice to the mixture. The filling for the pies is ready.
One piece of advice: when choosing minced meat, focus on its composition; the fat content in it should be at least 25%. This is an important detail, because it affects the juiciness of the filling, which means the pies will be tastier.

Recipe for making kefir dough:

Start kneading the dough for pies by beating the liquid ingredients (kefir, eggs, vegetable oil) followed by adding sugar, salt and soda.
Pour the sifted flour into the dough gradually, mixing immediately with a spatula and then with your hands.
To prevent the pies from turning out airy, do not make the dough too hard, so add flour in small portions, and at the end of kneading, add it a spoon at a time.

The quick kefir dough should not stick to your hands; this is a signal to complete the kneading process.

So, you have the base for the pies ready, now it’s time to form the baked goods:

Pinch off a small piece of dough and, on a table dusted with flour, stretch the cake with your hands. There is no need to use a rolling pin; everything is done with your fingers.
Place a tablespoon of filling in the center of the dough ball and seal the edges tightly. The first pie is ready, continue to do the same until you run out of all the dough and filling.
To fry the pies, use a regular frying pan with hot sunflower oil.
Keep the pies on the fire on each side until they are golden brown. If necessary, fry the pies by turning them on their sides.

Keep in mind that the pies will increase in volume at high temperatures, so place no more than 6 pies in a standard frying pan.

Adviсe:

Even cooled pies do not lose their taste; they can be served several hours after frying.
Fill the bell peppers with the remaining filling and make a delicious appetizer by simmering them in tomato sauce.
Before baking kefir pies in the oven, brush their surface with beaten egg.
Was the filling a little dry? Then serve the pies with vegetable or meat broth.

Yeast dough for pies, recipe with kefir

Ingredients, without which it is unrealistically difficult to prepare a dish:

3 cups flour; half a glass of vegetable oil; a glass of kefir; a packet of instant yeast; a teaspoon of salt; large spoon of granulated sugar

To prepare the dough, follow my recommendations, that is:

Heat 100 ml of water to a temperature of 36-37 degrees and dissolve the yeast and sugar. Leave the mixture for 20 minutes in a warm place.
During this time, mix the butter and warm kefir in a bowl and after the yeast begins to “work” and form bubbles, combine both masses.
Then add salt and sifted flour. Knead the dough, place it under a napkin in a warm place and leave for 15 minutes. During this time, the dough will rise and will be ready for cutting.
All you have to do is form the pies. Roll the dough into a sausage, divide it into parts and roll out a flat cake from each.
Place any filling in the center of each and seal the edges.
Before heat treatment, baked goods made from kefir dough should increase in volume, give it 5 minutes for this.

If you want to fry the pies in a frying pan, use vegetable oil. Place kefir baked goods immediately with the seam down so that they do not fall apart, then turn them over and finish cooking.
Would you like to bake kefir pies in the oven? There is nothing simpler, just place them on a greased baking sheet and send them to cook in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 15 minutes.
To give the baked goods a more appetizing look, let them stand at room temperature for 10 minutes and brush with beaten egg.

After your dish is ready, serve it to the table. The pies can be decorated with powdered sugar or painted with chocolate icing. Did you like the recipe? Then cook with me in the future.

Kefir dough pie

Another dough recipe using store-bought kefir, this time for a pie. How do you feel about the fact that to prepare dinner you don’t need to buy a lot of products, but use those left over after breakfast or lunch?

For example, kefir. It is not always possible to drink it in a day, but its remains will be useful for kneading dough for a pie and pampering your loved ones with it. Even inexperienced cooks can make a treat, so let’s proceed to the cooking process without fear.

You need:

600 g flour; half a liter of kefir; 2 eggs; 200 g margarine or butter (not important); 2 tablespoons sugar; a spoonful of salt and half a spoonful of baking soda

Dough preparation steps, recipe:

Soften the margarine in one of the following ways: leave it for several hours at room temperature or place it in the microwave for a couple of minutes.
Beat eggs with kefir, add sugar, soda and salt to the mixture.
Sift the flour and also add to the eggs, stir the dough until it becomes elastic.
At the end of kneading, add soft butter to the kefir dough and place the bowl in a cool place, covered with a towel.
After 30 minutes, begin to form pies with the filling that you prepared in advance.

I would like to note that if you increase the amount of margarine, the dough will resemble puff pastry, and if you have margarine lovers in your family, you can use this trick. If you decide to add more eggs, then baking with kefir will be similar to yeast.

Another recipe for pies

Let's learn how to prepare one of the simplest baking options - pies stuffed with liver. This dish is good because it is universal, which means it can be served with tea or broth, or taken with you as a snack to work or school.

The pies are cooked in the way you prefer: in the oven or in a frying pan. I would like to note that the baked goods do not lose their taste even after they cool down. And if you like hot pies and don’t want to change your habits, then heat them in a double boiler or in the microwave.
Depending on what you plan to serve the pies with, choose the appropriate filling for them. In our case, it is liver with fried onions and carrots. If your family has a lot of sweet tooths, then do not deny them the pleasure of eating pastries with jam or fruit.

Having prepared the kefir dough for pies, begin to “rustle” over the filling, which consists of: half a kilogram of liver; two carrots; bulbs; salt and spices to taste.

Filling preparation process:

Rinse store-bought liver under running water and remove the film from it.
Cut the product into medium-sized pieces and boil.
Grind the liver by grinding it in a meat grinder.
Cut the onion into cubes and grate the carrots.
First fry the onion in vegetable oil, then add the carrots and, stirring occasionally, keep on fire for several minutes.
Season the roast with salt and pepper, then add it to the minced liver.

Forming the pies:

Dust the work surface with flour, lay out the kefir dough for pies and divide it into several parts.
Roll each of them into a layer approximately 2 mm thick and, using a glass, cut out round pieces on which to place a spoonful of minced liver.
Slightly stretching the edges of the blanks with your fingers, form a pie and place on a greased baking sheet. The seam of the pie should be at the bottom.
Instead of greasing the baking sheet, you can use parchment paper and cover the entire bottom with it.
Before sending the pies to bake in a hot oven preheated to 180 degrees, apply a beaten egg to their surface.
The baked goods will be ready in 40 minutes, however, ovens may differ in their technical characteristics, and it is better for you to constantly monitor the pies through the glass door.

Pies with light dough

When your family asks you to please them with pies, and you don’t have enough time and ingredients, use the suggested recipe and prepare the dough with kefir. It is suitable for both fried pies and baking in the oven. Baking with kefir always turns out golden brown and tender. In addition, the products look very appetizing.

Among homemade baked goods lovers, kefir dough is becoming increasingly popular. It is easier to prepare than yeast, and there is no need to wait several hours until it “suits”. Once you combine the ingredients, you can get started right away.

A few secrets to a successful test

To start preparing the base, you should know a few secrets to successful baking:

It is recommended to use premium flour for preparing homemade baked goods. Then the products will turn out lush and tasty.
Before adding flour to the rest of the ingredients, it is better to sift it through a sieve. This procedure will allow you to get the most airy dough.
In the absence of good quality flour, you can add a little starch to what you have before combining it with other ingredients.
To prepare fried or oven-baked pies, kefir must be heated to room temperature. It is not recommended to use this dairy product straight from the refrigerator.
You can replace kefir with sour milk. It is advisable that it is not purchased.
There is no need to quench the baking soda for these recipes.

Cooking options

There are quite a lot of recipes on how to make dough for kefir pies. However, the “standard” set that forms the basis is always the same. This:

Kefir;
Flour;
Table soda.

Recipe No. 1 - without yeast

According to this recipe, in addition to the main products, you will also need eggs and vegetable oil. So, you should prepare:

0.5 l of kefir;
0.5 kg flour;
1 egg;
1 tsp. soda;
1.5 tsp. salt;
2 tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

The step-by-step process of preparing kefir dough is as follows:

Now you can start forming the cakes, filling them and baking them in the oven or frying.

Kefir dough is unique in that you can use both sweet foods (fruits, jam) and salty ones as a filling.

Products with stewed cabbage inside or liver are especially tasty.

Recipe No. 2 – with yeast

Using this recipe, you will get kefir-based yeast dough for pies in the oven. Household members will be delighted with the aromatic pastries prepared according to this recipe. The ingredients you need to take are:

300 ml fat kefir;
0.5-0.6 kg flour;
2 tsp. dry yeast (or 50 grams raw);
1.5 tbsp. l. Sahara;
1.5 tsp. salt;
100 ml. milk;
2 eggs;
3 tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

The preparation process will take a few minutes, but the result will definitely exceed expectations. To make yeast dough, you must first slightly warm the milk. Then add sugar to it and mix thoroughly until completely dissolved. After which you can add yeast by mixing it with milk. Then cover the container with the resulting mixture with a clean towel and place it in a warm place for 10-15 minutes. This will be the base (dough).

At the same time, you need to mix kefir with vegetable oil. Be sure to make sure it is not cold. Beat the eggs into the resulting mixture, add salt and mix everything well. Then pour the dough into the egg-milk mixture and, having mixed the ingredients, begin to add flour. After kneading is completed, the mass must be lowered back into the container and covered with a towel.

Just like the dough, the finished yeast dough should be kept in a warm place for about 15 minutes, but more is possible.

After this time, the finished mass can be taken out and prepared to form pies.

How to bake pies?

After the kefir dough (yeast or non-yeast) for pies is ready, it should be divided into 2-3 parts. This is necessary to make it more convenient to deal with it. From each part you need to form a cake, inside which you put the filling. As previously mentioned, you can use both sweet and salty (meat) foods as fillings.

As a filling for kefir pies, you can use: finely chopped fresh apples, pears, jam, mashed potatoes with or without mushrooms, minced meat, rice with egg, liver with fried onions, stewed cabbage. In this case, the last option is most appropriate for this type of product. They can not only be baked in the oven, but also fried in a frying pan.

After wrapping the edges, the products should be placed on a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil. If you prepared yeast dough for your products, then it is advisable to set the baking sheet with a large number of pies aside for 10-15 minutes. During this period of time they will rise, after which they can be greased with an egg beaten until foamy and put in the oven.

To do this, it is better to preheat the oven temperature to 200 degrees, and after the products are placed in it, increase it to 220 degrees if desired. In this mode, baking in the oven usually lasts from 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the type and power of the oven.

In general, the dough for kefir pies is very easy to prepare. By spending very little time and a small amount of available ingredients, you will get a fragrant culinary masterpiece in the form of ruddy and fluffy pies.

This kefir dough for pies is prepared without yeast and is very simple! You can cook belyashi and sweet pies with jam with it. They turn out awesome. We give the recipe for this dough to every housewife, because everyone can handle its preparation. The dough will be fluffy, breathable, and without yeast.

All you need:

kefir - 1 tbsp.;
sunflower oil - 2 tbsp;
soda - 1 tsp. without top;
sugar - 2 tsp;
flour - 2-2.5 tbsp;
about half a teaspoon of salt.

Kefir dough for pies. Step by step recipe

Sift the flour a couple of times.
Heat the kefir a little, mix it with sugar and sunflower oil, salt. Do not rush to extinguish the soda in it and add it immediately.
Now add the flour, but not all at once, gradually, so as not to clog the dough. The dough should be airy and breathable in your hands.
Sprinkle the table with a little flour and roll out the dough. Just not subtle. Divide the soda into 3 parts, and sprinkle one part over the dough. Fold it into three layers and roll it out again, repeating the same procedure with soda two more times. It is this manipulation that will allow us to achieve airiness and incredible deliciousness of the dough.
At the end we will get a small package folded in three layers.
Cover the dough with a towel and let it rise in any warm place for 30-40 minutes.
Meanwhile, while the dough is resting, make the filling.

When you shape the pies, handle the dough with extreme care; do not press it too hard.

Homemade pies are a dish that can instantly make the atmosphere in your home warm and cozy. The aroma alone is worth it. And hot tea and a glass of milk are the perfect addition to a simple and favorite dish.

Helpful Hints

Even if you made the dough for frying the pies in a frying pan, you can also make them in the oven. In this case, you just need to brush them with egg on top so that they end up golden brown.

If you want to make pies with meat filling, choose minced meat that contains at least a quarter of fat. This is done taking into account that the dish does not become dry later.

If suddenly the pies, or rather their meat filling, become dry, you can serve broth (chicken, meat or vegetable) in small bowls with them.

If you are cooking in the oven, place the pies seam side up. And if in a frying pan, seams down.

Another secret to making beautiful and tasty pies in the oven concerns the cooking temperature. After all, in order for them to be even, the temperature must be gradually increased. At the same time, the baking sheet with the formed pies must be placed in a preheated baking cabinet.

Kefir dough for pies is one of my favorites. Depending on the other ingredients, it can be fluffy or thin, crispy or tender.

Kefir, thanks to the presence of lactic acid bacteria, allows you to make fluffy, porous dough, which even with soda is similar to yeast. Whatever recipe you choose, you will definitely be satisfied with the result! Just keep in mind that it is preferable to use full-fat kefir.

Agree, homemade pies create an atmosphere of comfort, the aroma alone is worth it. And you always know what you used in cooking. These are not suspicious bun cookies from the store with a lot of flavorings, leavening agents, and other potentially harmful ingredients! The dough is suitable not only for pies, but also for pizza and buns.

Kefir allows you to prepare a dish quite simply, sometimes literally in an hour, with consistently good results. Try it!

Video recipe for yeast-free dough for fried pies in a frying pan from Olga Matvey

Lush, airy pies come out when using yeast-free dough based on kefir. Another advantage of this recipe is the ability to use any filling, both sweet and fresh; whatever is in the refrigerator will go into use!

Ingredients:

Kefir 3.2% fat – 200 g
Egg – 1 piece
Salt, soda - 0.5 tsp each.
Sour cream, sunflower oil - 1 tbsp.
Flour – 400 g
Sugar - 1 tbsp.

Preparation:

We take kefir of maximum fat content, remove it from the refrigerator overnight in advance, it is better to use “old” one, which has the maximum amount of lactic acid bacteria due to long-term storage, then the dough will be fluffier (don’t be afraid of getting poisoned; when baking, the temperature is sufficient to disinfect the product)
Add sour cream, sugar, salt to it
You can mix in the whole egg, or just the yolk, then you get different doughs (you should try both ways, then choose the option you like), lightly beating with a fork first to avoid the appearance of pieces of unmixed baked egg white in the finished baked goods

Mix everything, add sunflower oil, part of the flour, soda (used instead of yeast, but the main thing is to take good quality powder, not stale, it is recommended to change it every 5-6 months)

Add flour, sprinkle the table with it, knead the dough with your hands

Grease the table with vegetable fat, knead the mass on it so as not to clog it with excess flour, stir until smooth
If, even when kneading, the dough sticks to greased hands, it means there is not enough flour; you should add it a teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency (this happens due to the different thickness of kefir)

Grease the container with oil, lay out the dough, cover with cling film, and leave to “rest” for 15-20 minutes.

Pour a little sunflower oil onto the table, divide the dough into small balls (volume about a tablespoon), stretch with your fingers, making the edges thinner and the middle denser
Place the filling in the center, pull out the edges, seal with dumplings, thus making all the pies
Heat the oil in a frying pan (there should be a lot of it so that the sides are well fried), place the pies seam side down, and turn them over after 1-2 minutes.

If you are a visual person and you definitely need to meticulously see the details of the process, watch the video where all the stages are demonstrated in detail.
