Baked yeast-free pastries with kefir
Description
Homemade pastries for tea. Delicious, light and quick to make, these homemade buns are a perfect hassle-free baking option for busy housewives. The buns turn out golden brown and incredibly tasty, and all the ingredients can easily be found in any home. Today, my favorite filling is stewed cabbage, but you can use any filling you like: green onions with eggs, potatoes, rice with mushrooms, minced meat, or choose any sweet filling. The dough itself is very elastic and easy to work with—shaping buns from it is pure pleasure.
