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.

How to cook Chelsea Pie

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

Chelsea Pie

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.

Chelsea Pie - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with your favorite dried or fresh fruits. Chopped apples, pears, cranberries, or even chocolate chips would be delicious additions or substitutions.
Store leftover Chelsea Pie in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.
Yes, you can freeze Chelsea Pie! Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then in foil, or place it in a freezer-safe container. It can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat gently before serving.
To make it vegetarian it already is! To make it vegan, substitute the butter with a plant-based butter alternative and ensure any other ingredients, such as sugar, are vegan-friendly.
Make sure the dough rises properly in a warm environment. Avoid over-baking, which can dry out the pie. A slightly under-baked pie is preferable to an over-baked one.
Yes, this recipe can easily be halved or doubled. Simply adjust the ingredient quantities proportionally.
If you don't like cinnamon, try using other warming spices like nutmeg, allspice, or cardamom. A combination of apple pie spice would also work well.
Chelsea Pie is delicious on its own, but it's even better served slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of icing.
While it may require some adjustments, you can try using a gluten-free flour blend designed for baking. Be sure to add a binder, such as xanthan gum, to help improve the texture. Keep in mind the final product may be slightly different in texture and rise than the original recipe.
