It will take 30-40 minutes to prepare any of these pies, and the active steps will take only about 10. There are options with fruits, chocolate, nuts, fish and cabbage.

Quick Citrus Pie

Cooking time: 30 minutes.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs;
• 150 g sugar;
• 200 g flour;
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 150 g margarine;
• juice of one orange;
• zest of one lemon;
• butter for lubrication.

Preparation

Beat eggs with sugar. Mix flour with baking powder, add softened margarine, beaten eggs, juice and zest. Stir the dough well and place in a greased pan. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Check readiness with a wooden skewer.

If you have lemon or orange jam, cut the cake into cakes and spread over them. It will be even tastier.

Quick apple and nut pie

Cooking time: 30 minutes.

This recipe requires more ingredients than regular charlotte. But all of them are not particularly exotic. The main advantage of the dish is that the dough and filling are prepared simultaneously in different ovens, so the cake itself takes a minimum of time.

Ingredients

For the test:

• 2 layers of yeast-free puff pastry;
• 1 egg white.

For filling:

• ¼ glasses of white sugar;
• 2 tablespoons of starch;
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• 8 medium apples, peeled and cut into eight wedges;
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For powder:

• ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans
• ¼ glasses of flour;
• ¼ glasses of brown sugar;
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened.

Preparation

Roll out the dough and place it in a round dish lined with baking paper. It should cover the bottom and sides of the mold. Pierce the dough with a fork in several places, then send it to the oven preheated to 200 degrees and bake for 10-15 minutes, until it becomes slightly golden. Then remove the dough from the oven and brush with egg white.

While the dough is browning, combine white sugar, starch and cinnamon in a bowl, add apples mixed with lemon juice. Cover the bowl with baking paper (preferably waxed) and microwave on maximum power. Cook for 6 minutes, stir and microwave for another 6 minutes.

At this time, combine the nuts, flour, and brown sugar in a bowl. Then butter your fingers and continue stirring the dry ingredients. As a result, the mixture should resemble coarse crumbs.

If you work quickly and smoothly, the dough, filling and powder will be ready at the same time. Now you just have to send the filling into the mold, sprinkle the processed nuts on top and bake the cake at 220 degrees for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.

Quick Chocolate Pie

Cooking time: 35 minutes.

Ingredients

• 2 layers of yeast-free puff pastry (you can use any other ready-made dough);
• ½ cup softened butter;
• 55-60 g of dark chocolate;
• 1 cup of sugar;
• ¾ glasses of flour;
• 2 eggs;
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• a pinch of salt;
• 1 cup semi-sweet dark chocolate shavings

Preparation

Roll out the dough and place in a baking dish. Then go for the stuffing. Melt butter in a saucepan, add chocolate to it and stir until completely melted. Then remove the pan from the heat and stir in the sugar. Add flour, eggs, vanilla extract and salt. Mix well, then add the last ingredient - chocolate chips.

Pour the filling over the base of the pie and bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 25 minutes. The crust will indicate the readiness of the dessert.

Quick fish pie in a pan

Cooking time: 35 minutes.

Ingredients

For filling:

• 1 can of canned fish in oil;
• 2 boiled eggs;
• a bunch of dill and green onions;
• salt to taste;
• hard cheese to taste.

For the test:

• 1 glass of kefir;
• 1 egg;
• 1 cup flour
• ½ teaspoon of baking soda;
• butter or sunflower oil - for lubrication.

Preparation

Mash the fish with a fork, add finely chopped eggs and herbs to it and mix well. Salt if you don't have enough salt.

Now go to the test. To do this, combine kefir with flour, then add an egg, soda and stir until smooth. Pour the dough into a greased frying pan, spread the filling on top (leave at least a centimeter to the edge of the sides so that it does not fall out). Cover the skillet with a lid and cook the pie over medium heat for about 25 minutes.

You can check the readiness of the dish by lifting the cake with a spatula: if the dough is well browned, the dish can be removed from the heat. Sprinkle grated cheese on the cake a couple of minutes before cooking, wait for it to melt, and turn off the stove.

Quick Cabbage Pie

Cooking time: 40 minutes.

Ingredients

• 250 g flour;
• 300 g of chopped cabbage;
• 70 g butter;
• 2 eggs;
• 250 ml of kefir;
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda;
• salt to taste;
• a pinch of nutmeg.

Preparation

Fry the cabbage in 50 grams of butter, simmer for another 10 minutes, add salt and nutmeg at the end. While the filling is being prepared, beat the eggs with kefir, add baking soda and salt. Then gently add flour and stir the dough until smooth. Lubricate the mold with the rest of the butter, pour half of the dough on the bottom, put the filling on top and cover with the rest of the dough. Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about half an hour until golden brown. Serve with sour cream tea.

Variations

This pie can be connected in other ways:

• Stir the filled dough and bake like this - you get a more uniform dish.
• First, put the filling in the mold, and then pour the dough over it - in this case, the pie will look more like a casserole.
