One of the simplest desserts of modern Russian cuisine. Charlotte with apples has long been a delicious apple pie that has taken on a life of its own, acquired a dozen cooking options and won the hearts of home cooks.

A little bit of the dark past, “which was a long time ago and not true.” In the 15th century, the British prepared a strange meat pie and called it charlet. In the 18th century, it became sweet and, they say, then received its modern name in honor of Queen Charlotte. At the beginning of the 19th century in London, the eminent French chef Carême came up with his own version of apple pie, called it Parisian charlotte, but, having entered the service of Tsar Alexander I, he came up with a new name Russian Charlotte. Then there were numerous variations of charlotte in America, Jewish and German versions, Russian landowner apple babka, the strange times of the NEP with its modernization of old recipes, Stalinism with the Book of Tasty and Healthy Food, the well-fed times of the USSR, the hungry Perestroika and, finally, our time, in which charlotte is a simple pie with apples.

In modern Russia, there are several styles of making charlottes, choose according to your taste:
. Biscuit with apple filling,
. Cupcake with apple filling,
. Charlotte on kefir dough,
. Charlotte on sour cream dough,
. Tsvetaevskaya charlotte,
. Charlotte in a slow cooker,
. Old-fashioned charlotte with pieces of day-old white bread.

You can use absolutely any apples for charlotte. Each variety will give its own special aroma, and this is the main secret of the variety of charlottes. Apples of the variety are considered ideal in all properties Antonovka. Apples love lemon juice, this enhances their aroma, and the flesh does not darken and looks great in the pie. In all cases, the apples are cut into small pieces and mixed with the dough, or the dough is poured over the apples placed in the mold. Sometimes apples are poached in butter or soaked in cognac to soften them.

Cane sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon or orange zest, nuts, olive oil, honey, liqueurs, cognac, and rum go well with apples in the charlotte filling. You can add one of these components, or you can create your own unique mix and get a new taste or range of shades. However, apple charlotte will be delicious even with a basic set of ingredients.

For this version of charlotte, we use classic cake batter proportions. The cake will be heavy, dense, but loose. Make this charlotte when you want a dense, hearty apple pie.

Chop the apples and mix with the dough. Place the dough in a shallow, wide pan and bake for 30-40 minutes at 180 degrees. Check readiness with a toothpick or skewer - it should come out of the dough dry.

Charlotte with apples on biscuit dough

The biscuit is distinguished by increased sweetness, lack of butter and airiness. It is not so easy to prepare; you should pay close attention to the proportions. Unfortunately for those losing weight, the amount of sugar cannot be reduced; sugar forms the structure of the dough. Beat the eggs with sugar at maximum speed, you should get a thick mass. You need to mix the dough especially carefully, since the bubbles in the egg mixture will allow the cake to rise and become airy.

This quality can be enhanced by cutting the peel off the apples. In this case, the cake has a chance to look like a soufflé and approach the taste of a gourmet cake.

Preparation

  • Step 1

    We prepare products for charlotte. The eggs should be cold, then they will beat better. On the contrary, it is better to take the oil out of the refrigerator early to make it easier to grease the baking sheet with it.

  • Step 2

    Pour half a cup of sugar into a bowl. No more is needed, otherwise the charlotte will be sickly sweet.
    Break four eggs. Add a teaspoon of baking powder and a little vanilla.
    Instead of baking powder, you can take regular soda (about 1/3 teaspoon), quench it with vinegar and add to the dough.

    Step 3

    Beat eggs with sugar until foam appears. It is best to do this with a mixer, then the charlotte will turn out more fluffy and tender.

    Step 4

    Add 1.5 cups of flour to the dough. By the way, to make the dough more fluffier, it is better to sift the flour through a sieve first.

    Step 5

    Mix the dough thoroughly. It turns out quite thick. By the way, not much dough comes out of these products, i.e. for a small baking tray or mold (about 25 cm).

    Step 6

    Wash the apples thoroughly and remove seeds. Cut into small slices.

    Step 7

    Turn on the oven so that it has time to preheat. Grease the baking dish with oil.
    Place the dough in the mold and distribute the apple slices (as in the photo). It took us 3.5 apples.

    Step 8

    Place the charlotte in the preheated oven and bake at low temperature for 40 - 50 minutes.
    You can check readiness by piercing the pie with a toothpick or match. If the dough is still damp, it will be sticky, you will see it.
    By the way, the quality of baking largely depends on the oven itself. If you see that the charlotte is already well browned on top, but damp inside, just cover it with foil on top and leave to bake until done.
    After cooking, you can sprinkle the finished baked goods with powdered sugar or ground cinnamon. It turns out even tastier. Bon appetit!


Little tricks

    Probably every housewife has her own secrets for preparing delicious pastries. So we decided to tell you about our little tricks that will help you make delicious and fluffy charlotte in just a few simple steps.

    To make the dough lighter and fluffier, the flour should be sifted before adding to the dough. To do this, you can use a regular fine sieve or a hand-held mug sieve.

    The eggs for the dough should be cold. Then they will whip easily and give a lush foam. Store them in the refrigerator and take them out immediately before cooking.

    To make the dough soft, you should add baking powder or slaked soda to it. You can extinguish soda with lemon juice, regular table vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

    To give baked goods a pleasant aroma, you can use a variety of spices and herbs. Most often, vanilla sugar or ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and anise are used for these purposes. Some housewives prefer to add lemon zest or other citrus fruits to their baked goods.

    As a filling for charlotte, you can use not only apples, but also pears, plums, fruit and berry mixes to suit your taste. You can add new flavor notes to baked goods by preparing the dough with milk or condensed milk, adding poppy seeds, raisins or nuts to the dough.

    To prevent the apples from darkening, you can sprinkle them with a small amount of lemon or lime juice.

    You can make the dough even more delicious by adding cognac or rum. Sometimes the pie is prepared by adding cocoa powder or replacing sugar with honey or condensed milk.

    To prevent the charlotte from sticking to the pan and being easily removed, the baking pan should be greased with melted butter or covered with parchment paper.

    If you brush the pie with egg yolk a few minutes before the end of cooking, it will acquire an appetizing shiny crust. You can also decorate the charlotte by sprinkling it with powdered sugar or cocoa powder.

    You can check the degree of readiness of the baked goods by piercing it with a match or toothpick. The dough in the finished pie should not be sticky and leave a residue on the match.
