Description
The very same pie grandma used to make, but in a version for the laziest. Grated apple mixed with bread crumbs truly resembles warm, airy dough, and if you use buttery, airy brioche instead of regular sandwich bread, you can achieve a striking similarity to the real Charlotte. A perfect ending for an otherwise ordinary dinner, if you suddenly want to surprise your family.
Ingredients
- White bread - 8 pieces
- Apple - 1 piece
- Butter - 0.7 oz
- Meyer Lemon Juice - 1 tablespoon
- Raw cane sugar - 1 tablespoon
- Cinnamon - to taste
- Natural Yogurt - 2 spoons
- Fresh Berries - to taste
- Powdered Sugar - to taste
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Use a glass to cut out circles from four pieces of bread.
Step 2
Arrange the four remaining pieces of bread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and place the pieces with holes on top.
Step 3
Thoroughly brush the resulting tart shells with butter, both inside and out.
Step 4
Cut the removed bread centers into small cubes.
Step 5
Cut the apple in half, remove the core, and slice it into four thin rounds — one for each sandwich. Drizzle with lemon juice.
Step 6
Peel the remaining apple and slice it into thin strips.
Step 7
Crack an egg into a bowl, add yogurt, a pinch of cinnamon, and mix well.
Step 8
Add the julienned apple, sugar, and cubes of bread.
Step 9
Mix well and immediately, without letting the filling become soggy, spoon it into the pastry shells.
Step 10
Arrange slices of apple on top of the filling, lightly sprinkle with cinnamon, and place a berry in the center — blueberry, currant, or cranberry.
Step 11
Place in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove and dust with powdered sugar through a sieve.
