Layered pies with cheese are a delicious and flavorful type of baked goods that are definitely worth making for your family. The pie is versatile and can be served as an addition to lunch or dinner, as well as for breakfast or a snack.
Cooking puff pastries is quite simple. The main thing is to take quality products for the recipe. Flour should be of the highest grade, and butter of a high fat percentage, that is, not less than 82%.
The dough should be divided and abundantly greased with butter. It is better to use vegetable oil in addition to butter. So the layers will not stick to each other in the process of baking and forming the cake. Otherwise, the layers will stick together and the pie will not be lush.
For the filling, it is worth taking several types of cheese. It is better to give preference to stretchy, salty cheeses. Let’s prepare a layered pie with cheese at home.
