Tender pies with cabbage in the oven are a low-calorie dish, and also budget-friendly. The dough for them can be made at home or bought at the store. In any case, the basis is the filling - fresh or sauerkraut, which can be mixed with various products, giving an unusual taste and aroma.
The classic option for making pies in the oven involves kneading dough from products such as:
- milk (glass);
- sugar (2 spoons);
- yeast (25 g);
- flour (half a kilo);
- egg;
- salt (spoon);
- vegetable oil (4 tablespoons).
For the filling, cut up cabbage (half a kilo), add some salt and crush it with your hands until the juice comes out. Transfer to a hot frying pan with oil and fry until golden. A couple of minutes before it’s ready, pepper it.
Creating a culinary masterpiece begins with kneading the dough:
- Heat the milk.
- Stir the sugar-yeast mixture into it and put it in a warm place for a quarter of an hour.
- When the yeast has risen a little, make a dough: mix a little flour into the yeast mixture and put the mixture in a warm place for another half an hour. By this time, its volume should be approximately 2 times larger.
- Stir in all remaining ingredients (except flour) to form a homogeneous mass.
- Add flour little by little, kneading into a soft dough.
- Lightly sprinkle it with flour and leave for 20-30 minutes.
- When the dough has risen, you need to knead it well and only then start working with it.
While the dough is reaching, make the filling in an open frying pan. Otherwise, the liquid will not evaporate, and the cabbage will turn out stewed rather than fried.
The next stage is the formation of pies:
- Divide the prepared dough into equal pieces, from which we make a flat cake.
- Place the filling in its center.
- We pinch the edges, as when making dumplings, to make a pie.
Cover the baking sheet with baking paper, coat with oil and lay out the finished products. Leave it for a quarter of an hour, and then put it in an oven heated to 200°C. After 20 minutes, when the pies are covered with a golden brown crust, they can be taken out.
How to make yeast pies with sauerkraut
- Sprinkle the yeast with sugar and add warm water.
- We sift the wheat flour to enrich it with oxygen.
- When a fluffy cap forms on the surface of the water in a cup with yeast, the mixture must be stirred and poured into the flour.
- Add salt and knead the yeast lean dough.
- Chop the onion as finely as possible and fry it in vegetable oil until golden brown.
- If necessary, wash the cabbage, squeeze it out and put it in a frying pan where the onions are fried. Add vegetable oil and fry over medium heat, covered, for 15 minutes, stirring.
- Divide the risen dough into pieces of 20-30 grams.
- Roll each piece of dough into a flat cake, in the center of which we place a tablespoon of cabbage filling.
- We pinch the edges of the cakes so that we get boats.
To ensure they rise well, place them in a warm place for at least 30 minutes.
Sauerkraut is an excellent filling for pies. Soft and aromatic, it is simply made for baking and makes it so delicious that you simply cannot tear yourself away from it! In addition, this is an excellent option for “disposing” of very sour cabbage.

How to make pies with sauerkraut
- Heat the milk to a temperature of 30 degrees. Pour half the milk into a small bowl, dilute the yeast and 1 tsp. Sahara. If using instant or dry active yeast, you will only need 2 tsp. If you breed pressed ones, take 25 grams.
- Add salt and the remaining sugar (1.5 tbsp), vegetable oil and egg to the second half of the milk. Stir everything thoroughly with a whisk so that the egg is free of lumps.
- Sift the flour, make a hole in the mound and first pour in the diluted yeast, stirring with a spoon. Then add the milk mixture and knead the dough with your hands - if the flour seems not enough, you can add 30-50 grams. The result is a tight but soft bun; when pressed, the dough very slowly regains its shape.
- Cover the dough with a waffle towel and place in a warm place. If using instant yeast, 30-40 minutes is enough. If active dry or compressed yeast, you need to wait 1 hour for the dough to rise.

Heat a mixture of vegetable and butter in a frying pan (it will thicken the vegetable juices and the filling will not leak out!), sauté the onion and carrots.

- Knead the dough and divide into 16 parts. Roll each into a circle, place 1 tbsp in the center. l. fillings. Bring the edges of the dough together and pinch (like dumplings).

Pies are one of the most popular types of baked goods in the country. You can never get bored of them as they can be made with a variety of fillings. Many people prefer sauerkraut as a filling for pies. It always turns out juicy, with a spicy taste. Products with such filling are inexpensive, but tasty and satisfying. Many versions of such baked goods can be eaten during Lent, which is also important for many residents of our country. There are several recipes for pie filling made from sauerkraut, each of them has its own admirers and deserves the attention of the hostess.
With cabbage made from puff pastry
The fastest option is to make cabbage pies from ready-made dough. First you need to defrost it. To do this, first put it in the refrigerator, and then leave it on the countertop so that the dark dough warms up to room temperature.
The main emphasis is on preparing the filling. You can, of course, make classic pies with stewed or fried cabbage. Or come up with a more “tasty” mixture.
For example, let's prepare the filling from:
- half a kilo of cabbage;
- pairs of bulbs;
- 4 boiled eggs;
- three spoons of mayonnaise;
- 0.2 kg of hard cheese;
- vegetable oil, salt and spices to taste.
To lubricate the finished products, you need to beat the egg yolk with two teaspoons of water.
For this:
- Heat the oil in a frying pan, add finely chopped cabbage and fry for 4 minutes.
- Add finely chopped onion, salt and pepper, simmer until tender.
- Transfer to a deep container.
- Add chopped eggs and cheese (grated).
- Season with mayonnaise.
Roll out the dough and divide into equal layers. Place the prepared filling in the center of the plate and pinch the edges. Spread on a sheet lined with parchment paper and place in an oven preheated to 190°C. After a quarter of an hour, take it out, brush it with the whipped yolk mixture and put it in the oven for a few more minutes.
Cooking features
The sauerkraut filling for pies is prepared quickly and simply, but still this process has several subtleties that are worth learning about before starting cooking. Only then can you expect that the result will not disappoint.
- Sauerkraut may be too sour. To ensure that the pies filled with it have a pleasant taste, the cabbage is washed before use and left in a colander to drain excess water.
- Large pieces of cabbage found in the filling can irreparably spoil the taste of the pies. If you did not chop the cabbage finely when making sauerkraut, then before preparing the pie filling from it you will still have to chop it by chopping it with a knife.
- Sauerkraut is never put raw into pies, otherwise it will remain crispy and sour even after baking the products in the oven or frying them in a frying pan. To prepare the filling for pies, sauerkraut is fried or stewed in a frying pan.
- The filling will have a more balanced taste if you add onions, carrots, rice, mushrooms, eggs, and minced meat. All products included in the sauerkraut filling for pies must first be brought to readiness (boiled, stewed, fried).
- The taste of the filling can be changed by adding various spices and sauces.
- Before putting the filling on the dough and forming the pies, it needs to be cooled to room temperature. If you put hot filling on the dough, it will steam and become viscous and sticky. This will not have the best effect on the taste of the finished pies.
