Pie with cheese and ham filling
Description
The baking is simple and quick. Pies with savory fillings make an excellent snack, perfect to take on a trip or a walk, ideal for a light bite. And if unexpected guests drop by, you simply can't do without such a pie! Of course, you can use any filling you like, whatever you have in your fridge (within reason, naturally). I'm suggesting one of my favorite versions. The pastry is ready. Serve at the table.

Prepare all the necessary ingredients. I recommend using layered yeast dough for the pie, as it will make the pie more tender.

Grate the hard cheese on a coarse grater or simply slice it.

Step 7
Cover the top with the second part of the dough, prick several holes with a fork to prevent puffing during baking. Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg and bake in the oven for 25 minutes (baking temperature — 180 degrees).
