Instructions
Step 1
Start by **boiling the eggs** until hard-boiled. This usually takes around 10-12 minutes. After they are cooked, allow them to cool before peeling and chopping them into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, **combine the chopped eggs, tuna, sliced green onions,** and **salt to taste**. Mix everything together until well combined and set aside.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, **whisk the eggs with the kefir**, sugar, and salt until everything is fully blended. It’s important to mix them well to create a smooth mixture.
Gradually, **add the flour and baking soda** to the egg mixture. Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to over-mix.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to **180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit)**. In a greased baking dish, pour **half of the batter** mixture at the bottom. Make sure it covers the entire surface.
Next, add the prepared filling over the batter evenly, distributing it well. Finally, pour the remaining batter on top, ensuring everything is well covered.
Step 4
Place the dish in the preheated oven and **bake for approximately 40 minutes**. To check if it is done, insert a wooden skewer into the center; if it comes out clean, your pie is ready!
Allow the pie to cool slightly before serving. **Enjoy your savory pie!**

Equipment
Essential for combining your batter and filling. Make sure it’s large enough to comfortably hold all your ingredients!



A great tool for achieving a smooth batter. If you don’t have a whisk, a fork can work in a pinch!



Ensure your oven is preheated to 180°C (350°F) to achieve the perfect bake. Always use an oven thermometer for accuracy!



A medium-sized pie dish is ideal for this recipe. Glaze it lightly with butter or oil to prevent sticking!
Variations
Faq
- What if my batter is too thick?
If your batter is too thick, simply add a splash of milk or more kefir to achieve the desired consistency. Remember, it should be pourable but not runny!
- Can I prepare the filling in advance?
Absolutely! You can prepare your filling a day before and store it in the fridge. This will enhance the flavors too!
- How do I ensure my pie cooks evenly?
To ensure even cooking, make sure to spread the batter and filling evenly in your pie dish. A rotating oven rack can help with this as well!
- What can I substitute for green onions?
If you don't have green onions on hand, chopped chives or leeks are great alternatives that will add a similar flavor profile!
- Can I freeze leftover pie?
Yes! Let the pie cool completely, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and then aluminum foil before freezing. It can be enjoyed later when reheated!
- What’s the best way to reheat this pie?
The best way to reheat it is in the oven at 160°C (320°F) for about 10-15 minutes. This will keep the crust crispy!
