Preparation
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. Take the butter out of the refrigerator in advance so it can soften. Sift the flour to remove any lumps. Use a thick jam for the filling.
Step 2
Cut the butter into pieces so it softens more quickly. Combine the softened butter with the sugar and mix.
Step 3
Add the egg and mix it into the dough. Add the baking soda mixed with vinegar.
Step 4
Gradually add the flour and knead into a soft dough that does not stick to your hands. You may need slightly more or less flour depending on the consistency. Divide the dough into 2 unequal portions. Place the smaller portion in the freezer for 1 hour.
Step 5
Roll or press the larger portion of dough into a baking pan, forming a small rim around the edges. A springform pan lined with parchment paper works well.
Step 6
Spread a thick layer of jam evenly over the dough. Plum jam works especially well, but any thick fruit or berry jam can be used.
Step 7
Remove the smaller piece of dough from the freezer and coarsely grate it evenly over the top of the pie. Bake in an oven preheated to 355°F for 30–40 minutes.
Step 8
Bake until the pie is nicely golden. Remove it from the oven and let it cool. Once cooled, cut into pieces and serve.
