Preparation

Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the pie is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the dish for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving
  1. Slice and serve your delicious pie. Enjoy!

Notes

Make sure the kefir is at room temperature for a better mix and fluffier texture. You can try substituting half of the sugar with brown sugar for a touch of caramel flavor. Consider folding in grated apples or berries into the batter for added moisture.
