Puff Pastry Pie with Sweet Cherries
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. The pie turns out with a very delicate and aromatic filling. You can replace sweet cherries with other berries, and ricotta with cottage cheese or cream cheese. If you use cottage cheese, choose full-fat and rub it through a sieve. Almond flakes can be perfectly replaced with any chopped nuts. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
