Step 4

It's better to bake the pie in a 25-26 cm springform pan. I baked mine in a heavy cast-iron pan. Roll out the dough into a flat layer and place it into the pan, forming the edges.

Step 8

And bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees. In a heavy pan, the pie took almost an hour and a half to bake. In a regular springform pan, about an hour. The filling will rise during baking, then settle down. The pie is ready when the entire filling becomes firm.

This is how the cake looks when sliced. I sprinkled it with grated chocolate. You can also drizzle it with a slightly tangy syrup to make it even more delicious.
