Step-by-step recipe for delicious cakes with potatoes in the oven

To prepare delicious, fragrant and airy cakes in the oven with potatoes you will need such products:

Ingredients for the dough:

  • 1 liter of water;
  • 50 ml of vegetable oil;
  • 3 teaspoons of salt;
  • 3 - 4 tbsp. tablespoons of sugar;
  • 22 g of dry yeast;
  • 1.5 - 1.7 kg of wheat flour;
  • 2 yolks.

About 40-45 small pies are obtained from this amount of dough. If you need to bake less, then halve the amount of ingredients.

Ingredients for the filling:

  • Potatoes;
  • One onion;
  • Vegetable oil;
  • Salt to taste.

Step by step recipe:

  1. Cooking the filling. Boil potatoes and mash. We send a frying pan with vegetable oil to the fire, and fry the onion, chopped into small cubes. Fry until golden. Then add the fried onion along with the oil to the cooled potato, and mix thoroughly.
  2. We begin to prepare the test. Take a large bowl and pour warm water and yeast into it. Stir and leave for a couple of minutes to dissolve.
  3. Add salt, sugar, vegetable oil and mix. Now we begin to add flour (to begin with, we pour only one kilogram of flour). Pour, stirring the dough with a spoon. Leave warm to fit.
  4. As soon as the volume doubles, we crush the mass, adding the rest of the flour. Then let the test come up. After that, it is ready for use.
  5. We dress a small piece of dough and roll it into a long "sausage". Then cut into identical pieces.
  6. Using a rolling pin, we roll out each piece. Remember, the dough will fit, so the thickness should be 2 - 3 mm.
  7. On the rolled circles we lay out the filling, and begin to form pies.
  8. Cover the baking sheet with baking paper. Put the pies on the sheet with the seam down, grease with whipped yolks. You can’t place the pies close to each other, otherwise in the oven they will increase in volume and stick together.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.
