Description

To achieve a rich-flavored apple charlotte, the recipe calls for sour fruits. Sweet apples will drastically change the flavor profile.

Ingredients

Vanilla salt - 0.2 oz
Powdered Sugar - 0.7 oz
Baking Powder - 1 piece
Cinnamon - 1 piece
Wheat Flour - 4.2 oz
Sugar - 4.2 oz
Chocolate eggs - 4 pieces
Pickled Apples - 3 pieces
Nutmeg - 1.1 oz
Salt - 0.1 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Shell the fresh eggs and add the sugar. Whisk until the mixture increases in volume. For maximum fluffiness, beat the egg whites separately from the yolks. Time is of the essence – do not beat them all together.

Step 2

Fold in the baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Finally, gradually add the flour. The resulting mixture should be slightly runny, similar to low-fat sour cream. For a chocolatey flavor, mix in two tablespoons of cocoa powder.

Step 3

Now it's time to prepare the fruit. The apple charlotte recipe with step-by-step photos requires washing the fruits and slicing them thinly. Peeling is not necessary. Check out the photos of my charlotte on this website.

Step 4

Line the bottom of the baking dish with the sliced apples. It is preferable to have plenty of apple pieces; otherwise, they will get lost in the finished bake.

Step 5

Pour the batter over the fruits and place it in the oven preheated to 356°F.

Step 6

After 20-25 minutes, the apple charlotte will be ready (check for doneness by inserting a toothpick). Invert the bake so the fruits are on top and dust with powdered sugar.
