Vatrushki are open round pies with a variety of fillings. Products are cooked in the oven and can be sweet or snack. Try the variant of potato fritters.

Hearty mouth-watering pies are perfect for broth or soup for lunch. Baking can be taken with you on the road for a snack. The dough for potato fritters is prepared with yeast in a special custard method and does not require proofing and rising time. Potatoes can be boiled ahead of time or you can use leftovers from dinner. You can add dry or fresh aromatic herbs, fried onions, grated cheese, fried mushrooms to the filling and get new flavors from the same recipe every time.
