Orange Pie

If you want to try a more special pie, I recommend you do this - the filling and the dough fit perfectly, a very fragrant and tender pie.

Just be careful not to put it in the fridge, I found that if you put it cold to store it hardens the dough (it has butter in the composition) - I prepared it nicely, portioned, because I had guests and I put a little in the bar putting it in the cold - the dough from the pie hardened and was no longer tender and soft.

In addition, be careful with the sugar in the filling, in the original recipe put 1 cup of sugar to 1 orange - in my opinion it was too sweet, I prefer it to be more sour - some guests told me that it is good, so how will place. In the future I would put 1 cup of sugar for 2 oranges.

Then divide the dough into 2 balls, spread one and place it at the bottom of an oven tray greased with butter.

I recommend using a larger tray than the one in the picture - you will get the dough and the filling.

Spread the filling evenly over the dough in the tray.

Put the pie in the oven - at 180-200 degrees.

Then let it penetrate and cool.
