Pita-cake with fresh figs - figs are an inspiring food for me, so this recipe for PITA-CAKE was born.

Pita cake with fresh figs, ingredients:

  • 14 pieces of fresh figs (larger ones)
  • 10 sheets of pie crust
  • 6 eggs (smaller)
  • 1 bag of vanilla sugar
  • 500 ml milk
  • 100 g of vanilla pudding powder
  • 4 tablespoons of sugar (or to taste)
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 bag of baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut flour
  • 12 mint leaves

Pita-cake with fresh figs, preparation:

  1. Wash the figs, cut off their stems and cut them into quarters.

  2. In a separate bowl, break the eggs, add vanilla sugar, sugar and milk and beat with a fork or wire by hand.
    Add pudding powder, part of the oil and baking powder and mix everything well.Picture 242
  3. Separate 4 peels from the crust, 2 for the bottom and 2 for the top, and roll up the rest and cut into strips 2 cm wide. Put baking paper in a small round mold and spread it thinly with olive oil. Place 2 crusts crosswise so that the edges go over the mold.

    In the middle, put the skins cut into strips, previously separated.

    Pour a few spoonfuls of filling.

  4. Arrange all the figs. Pour the rest of the filling over the figs, leaving a few spoonfuls for the top.

  5. Now transfer the ends of the crust, which remained outside the mold, over the fig and add 2 crusts and tuck the pie in. Spread it with the rest of the filling, which you have separated and poke a little of the crust with a knife. Sprinkle with coconut.

    Put the pie-cake to bake in a heated oven at 200 degrees C with hot air. When the crusts start to brown, reduce the temperature to 180 degrees C and bake until the pie is nicely browned, about 40 minutes. Be careful not to burn yourself.

  6. Take it out of the oven, cover it and let it cool down, then transfer it to the fridge to cool down.Picture 275
  7. Cut into triangles, garnish with whipped cream and mint and serve.

Since the pudding filling falls to the bottom, it will seem to you that the pie is not baked. The skins collect the excess liquid and the pudding is cooked so that when the pie cools you have one layer of pudding under the fruit with the skins not visible. In order for the pie to be cut nicely, it is tastier when it is nicely cooled, and with whipped cream and mint, it gets extra flavor.
