From the cut pieces, ovals are formed, in the middle of which the filling is placed, about two teaspoons each.
Next, two opposite edges are folded around the filling, and their joints are pressed with their fingers until tight bonding.
Now, on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, stuck blanks are laid out. After the last pie is laid on paper, they need to stand for 20 minutes to make the dough come up.
