Chelsea Pie

I used my favorite recipe for Chelsea buns, which are usually baked in a deep baking dish, as the basis for this pie. It turned out very pretty and just as delicious.

Ingredients

  • powdered sugar for sprinkling
  • 20 g melted butter
  • 110 g yellow raisins
  • 30 g black raisins (you can take dried cranberries)
  • 25g candied orange and lemon zest
  • 2 Art. l. light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 st. some warm milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 50 g softened butter
  • 3 1/3 st. wheat flour
  • 75 g fine sugar
  • 1/2 h. l. year
  • 1 tsp fast acting yeast

Cooking

Step 1

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise in a warm place for an hour and a half.

Step 2

When the dough is ready, punch it down, roll it out on the surface and form a large square about a centimeter thick (the layer should be about 50 by 50 cm long).

Step 3

Brush the surface of the dough with melted butter, sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon and fruit mixture, leave about 2 cm free at the bottom edge.

Step 4

Carefully roll the dough into a tight roll. Pinch the edges tightly. Cut the roll into pieces, 3-4 centimeters thick and put the "snails" in the prepared form, greased with oil.

Step 5

Cover with cling film and let rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until the buns have doubled in size.

Step 6

Heat oven to 200°C. Bake the cake for about 30 minutes. or until evenly ruddy. Remove from oven and let cool in pan for a few minutes. Flip the pan onto the waxed paper and transfer the cake to a flat plate without breaking it.
