I am studying Finnish and would like to try some of the foods talked about in the lessons. Internet searches are mostly returning results about the foods and not actual recipes.

The recipes i would like to find are lörtsy (sweet, and savory, however i am a vegetarian so i am not after meat fillings), pulla, ruisleipä, karjalanpiirakka, and i recently heard about blueberry pies with rye crust on TikTok (no idea what they are called).

Recipes can be in Finnish, i welcome translating them. I did that with my leipäjuustoa recipe.

Edit: i found a lörtsy with caramelized onion and gruyere filling recipe

Here's the traditional "mustikkakukko" aka "rättänä" recipe

Kukko's are foods from eastern Finland / Karelia that are baked inside the crust. Kalakukko is basically rye bread with fish inside and lanttukukko with rutabaga and meat. Vegan version of lanttukukko is made with seitan and tastes great!

While making Karelian pies you can also check out this "sultsina" recipe, they use basically the same dough and filling
