The post, in General, not invented for fun. But this is not a reason to forty days to eat fried potatoes with pickles, but pasta with ketchup. Them blessed soul will not, and will undermine the health overhaul. Useful and very nourishing food, lean meet the most stringent rules, big set! And help us to prepare such food for summer-autumn harvesting. Nuts, dried fruits... In the time of lent, when each protein counts, nuts – an indispensable thing. If they have not lain in some dusty warehouse for more than a year, it is almost a panacea for all the problems of the spring and winter. Fresh fruit at this time of the year in Russia can not be determined. But collectors lately trying to fame: any market is willing to offer you at least 10 varieties of dried fruits. With the exception of pineapple, which cannot be dried without the use of sugar, other fruits, even kiwi! just vyalyatsya in special drying machines. Amount of natural vitamin a in them, of course, drops, and sugar – growing, but the benefits of dried fruit all the same, undoubtedly, because all trace elements are stored in required quantity.

Warm up the oven to 190-200 degrees. Not to waste time, it is necessary to properly distribute the stages of preparation. To do this, let's start with kneading dough for bread. 4G yeast mix 1H. L. sugar and fill it with 50ml of warm water. Mix and put in a warm place for 10-15 minutes. Raisins fill with water, the nuts will chop but not finely. I just put in a package and rolled rolling pin.

In a bowl combine 150g of the sifted flour, 100g bran (I have oatmeal, but you can use any), 2st. L. sugar and a pinch of salt. Add nuts. Mix.

Add 5 tbsp vegetable oil, yeast approached. Mix.

Gradually introduce warm water (about 70мл). Throw the raisins in a colander and add to the dough. Mix soft, dont stick to hands dough. If necessary, add a little flour. Cover with a towel and put in warm place to rise.

Proceed to the preparation of donuts. 150g sifted flour combine with 100g of bran, 2st. l. sugar, 1H. L. baking powder, a pinch of salt, mix.

Add dried cherries. Mix.

Add 5 tbsp of vegetable oil. Gradually introduce about 100 ml of warm water. Mix soft, dont stick to hands dough.

Zastelen the baking sheet with baking paper. Will form a small (1st. l test) buns. Place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven until tender, about 30 minutes. Each oven is different, so time is relative. Dumplings should be brown.

Ready donuts out of the oven, spread on a dish and cover with a towel.

The batter for the muffins came. Put it on the table and form buns the size is the same as crumpets. Spread on a baking tray lined with baking paper, cover with a towel and leave in a warm place for 30 minutes so the buns have risen. Then put in oven until tender (about 30 minutes). Rolls should be brown.

The top is lubricated with the sweet little water (1 tbsp water + 1 tsp sugar or honey), spread to pyshechka and cover with a towel. P. S. With so many sugar buns and savory crumpets are obtained. For the sweet tooth, I recommend adding another teaspoon or two of sugar. Sugar can safely be substituted for honey, which makes the cakes even more useful. Only need to vary the amount of water – you may need less.

Crumpets after cooling become crisp, but airy. I really liked it with jam.
