A slightly dressed-up version of charlotte. And one of the most successful examples of lean dough - it is fluffy, light and easily absorbs the filling. It is also important that it is much easier and faster to bake a jellied pie than any other: such dough does not require either rest or proofing. Eggs are also not required, and vegetable oil copes with the role of fat. For an even more festive look, in addition to almond petals and coarsely chopped pear, you can also mix dried apricots minced through a meat grinder into the dough - then the pie will have a pleasant red color and a subtle aroma of apricot.
