Lingonberry Pie



Lingonberries grow all over our summerhouse at the lake. They are quite sour so I don't like them plain but with little bit of sugar, in pies and other desserts lingonberries go well :)

LINGONBERRY PIE

Base:
100 g butter
85 g (1 dl) sugar
1 egg
130 g (2 dl) white flour
70 g (1 dl) rye flour
1 teaspoon baking powder

Filling: 
2 eggs
85 g (1 dl) sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
100 ml cream
200 g natural yoghurt 
200 g lingonberries

Crust:
180 g (3 dl) oatmeal
100 g butter
3 tablespoons sugar

+ some lingonberries for decoration 

Preheat the oven to 175 C. Prepare a round pie tin buttering the base and the borders. 
In a bowl mix together the room temperature butter with sugar. In a bowl mix together all the dry ingredients (white flour, rye flour and baking powder) Add them and the egg in the first bowl . Mix until the texture is even, if it's still sticky add some flour. Press the dough all over the pie tin with your hands and fingers. Then prepare the filling. In a bowl whisk the eggs with sugar, add vanilla sugar, cream, yoghurt and lingonberries. Keep whisking until the texture is smooth. Pour the mix on the pie base. Prepare the crust heating the butter and mixing it with oatmeal and sugar. Spread it over the filling and add some lingonberries on top. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until the crust becomes light brown. Remove from the oven, let cool for a moment and serve.
