Apple and Semolina Pie

Apple and semolina pie is a simple and cozy dessert of Russian cuisine that warms the soul and evokes memories of grandmother's house. Its roots go back to the traditions of village baking when housewives used available and simple ingredients to create amazing flavors. Semolina gives the pie a delicate crumbly texture, while apples provide natural sweetness with a slight tartness enriched by the aroma of cinnamon and the freshness of lemon juice. An important feature is the preparation without kneading dough: layers of dry mixture and juicy apples soaked in hot milk create a harmonious balance of flavor. This pie is perfect for family tea gatherings, especially on cool evenings when one craves homey comfort and warmth. It can be enjoyed both hot and cold, savoring the softness of the fruits and the golden crust.
