Step-by-step recipe
Step 1:
Freeze the butter in the freezer.
Step 2:
In a bowl, mix flour and baking powder.
Step 3:
Dredge the frozen butter in flour and grate it into a bowl using a coarse grater.
Step 4:
Using your hands, mix the flour and butter.
Step 5:
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and add sugar. Mix until smooth.
Step 6:
Add sour cream to the egg and sugar and mix well.
Step 7:
Pour the resulting mixture into the flour and butter.
Step 8:
Knead the dough.
Step 9:
Divide the dough into two parts. Freeze the smaller one for 20-30 minutes.
Step 10:
Roll out the dough on parchment paper. Grease a baking sheet with oil and place the parchment paper and dough on it.
Step 11:
Create a thickened “rim” for the filling on all sides, redistributing a little dough from the middle to the edges.
Step 12:
Place the jam on the dough and spread evenly.
Step 13:
Remove the dough from the freezer and grate it over the jam using a coarse grater.
Step 14:
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 180 degrees.
This pie, or cookie (if you cut the pie into pieces), was called "Leningradsky" in Soviet times. It's very, very tasty. Any jam goes well. I made it very often when the kids were little.
I carefully rub soft butter with flour and sugar in my hands and sprinkle it on top of the jam; it turns out faster and more tender.
Knead the dough? Maybe knead it better.
