Homemade apple pies that always turn out fluffy: how to make a successful yeast dough

Luxurious cakes, various desserts, and cheesecakes can never be compared to fragrant homemade pastries, namely apple pies. In childhood, they were often cooked by my mother or grandmother, and the pies would be sold out in a matter of minutes, even before they had cooled down. And of course, these pies are best made with yeast dough. This is how they turn out to be especially soft and fluffy.

The recipe for apple pies was published on the nyamm.nyam_ka culinary blog on Instagram.
