Homemade cakes are a weak point for many. Of the great variety among the Slavs, pies occupy a special place. They are baked in a wide variety of ways and with different fillings. But in any case, they will serve as a magnificent decoration for a solemn feast and a pleasant addition to a cup of tea. Pies are rightfully the centerpiece of bakery products. The number of their recipes has long exceeded a hundred. Today I propose to consider one of its options, from puff pastry and apples.
You can use commercial puff pastry to make this cake. Then the baking will turn out in a hurry. But the most delicious cake is made with homemade dough. Almost any apples are suitable for the pie, however, you can slightly caramelize the hard varieties with sugar and cinnamon beforehand. Then they will become more tender. And if you prefer a smooth and soft filling, peel the skin, especially if it is dense.
A slice of this pie eaten for breakfast will serve as a great hearty and tasty snack that will help you easily wait for dinner. It must also be said that other fillings are allowed instead of apples. You can use any seasonal berries and fruits.

9. Form the dough into a lump, wrap it in a bag and refrigerate for half an hour.
10. After this time, cut off 2/3 of the dough and roll out a thin sheet with a rolling pin. Place the layer in a suitable baking dish.
