Directions
1. Step
In a large bowl, combine the flour (400 g), baking powder (1 tsp), salt (a pinch), and vanilla sugar (1 tsp). Add the cold butter (180 g) and mix with your hands until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
2. Step
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg (1), sugar (80 g), and sour cream (50 g). Add this mixture to the flour mixture and knead it into a dough. Divide the dough into two equal parts. Roll out each part with a rolling pin.
3. Step
Line a baking container with parchment paper and place one rolled-out dough layer inside. Spread the jam (400 g) evenly over the dough.
4. Step
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Bake the layered dough for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
