Crumble with your fingers until you get a crunchy texture. Add water and knead a smooth dough.
More on Easter Pie
Easter pie is a regular food pie made from Easter ingredients and spices.
It can be prepared in many different ways and the filling can vary depending on the pie manufacturer. Anyway, my recipe is made with red onion and green asparagus.
Easter pie is also made from egg, salty Parmesan cheese and decorated with leaf spinach, asparagus, cold smoked meat and marinated eggs to add Easter flavor and a festive look.
Do you have to put seasoned eggs on top of the Easter pie?
No, you don’t need it. I think it would look beautiful on an Easter table though.
If you don’t want to make pickled eggs, you can replace them with half of a regular hard-boiled egg. It would be nice and delicious too!
Can you substitute the cheese?
Yes, it’s going well. Just make sure you use a tasty and aged cheese for the best taste.
Is this Easter pie vegan?
If you leave out the cold smoked salmon, the pie is vegetarian. However, it does contain eggs.
