Black Currant Jam Pie
Description
The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. This pie can bring a large group together over a cup of tea. The filling is customizable—add apples with sugar or plums. It's better to choose a slightly tart filling. We'll be making a yeast dough, so make sure you have enough time. Later, we'll braid it into braids, so get ready. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
