Vinegar Pie Roll
Vinegar Pie Roll offers a tangy, sweet dessert with a crunchy crust and a flavorful vinegar glaze, perfect for those who enjoy unique, nostalgic baked treats.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix dough as for pie crust.
- Roll dough out and spread sugar and butter evenly over it.
- Roll up the dough like a jelly roll.
- Place the rolled dough into a baking dish.
- Pour hot vinegar, sugar, and water mixture over the rolled dough.
- Bake at 375°F until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For the dough, you can substitute half of the butter with vegetable shortening for a flakier texture. Make sure your vinegar is not too strong; a milder white vinegar works well. If you prefer a sweeter filling, adjust the sugar to your taste. Ensure the vinegar mixture is hot when pouring over the rolled dough to achieve the best caramelization, reminiscent of Custardy Bread Pudding.
Serving Suggestions
This Vinegar Pie Roll is delightful served warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top. It makes a unique dessert option to accompany coffee or tea. For a complete meal, consider pairing it with a light salad or brunch dish like Blueberry French Toast Casserole for a refreshing contrast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of vinegar?
Yes, you can experiment with different types of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar, for a milder taste. However, avoid flavored vinegars as they may alter the pie's intended flavor profile. A good balance of acidity and sweetness is crucial for this dish.
What should I do if the dough tears while rolling?
If your dough tears, don’t worry! Simply patch it up with small pieces of dough to seal the gaps. You can also roll it out between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking and make handling easier.
Is it possible to make this recipe ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and roll it up a day in advance. Just cover it tightly and refrigerate. When you're ready to bake, let it come to room temperature before pouring the hot vinegar mixture over it and proceeding with the baking.
