Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a charlotte without eggs? Prepare the ingredients. I immediately write that the dough in this pie turns out to be heavy due to honey and the lack of eggs. Therefore, the charlotte will not be as airy as in the classic version. The dough here is not biscuit, but honey.
Step 2:
Pour boiling water into a bowl. Add sugar, add 1 tablespoon of honey and vegetable oil. Mix everything thoroughly and quickly. Choose the amount of sugar and honey to suit your taste. I advise you to try the dough for sweetness before baking.
Step 3:
Sift the flour through a fine sieve and add it to boiling water. Pour in the same baking powder.
Step 4:
Mix the dough until smooth so that there are no lumps in it. It should be quite viscous.
Step 5:
Brush a small baking dish (diameter 16-18 cm) with butter and sprinkle with semolina.
Step 6:
Wash the apple well, dry it, peel the seeds and cut into slices. If desired, you can also peel the apple.
Step 7:
Put the apple slices on the bottom of the baking dish, laying them on top of each other.
Step 8:
Pour the dough over the apples and level the surface. Bake the charlotte in a preheated 180 ° C oven for about 35 minutes. Determine the exact time according to the model of your oven. I have it electric. In yours, you may have to bake longer or, conversely, less. To avoid burning, you can cover the mold with a sheet of foil on top.
Step 9:
Transfer the finished charlotte to a dish, smear the remaining honey on top, cut into pieces and serve to the table. I also sprinkled powdered sugar for beauty. The charlotte gets a crispy crust, and inside it is moist because of the apples.
The amount of sugar in the recipe can be reduced, or it can be completely replaced with honey - 50 g will be enough.
Apples can be additionally sprinkled with cinnamon. So it will turn out more fragrant and tastier.
You can also add raisins, chopped nuts, lemon zest to the dough if desired. Some of the water can be replaced with hot apple juice.
Apples can not be laid out on the bottom, but cut into smaller cubes, and mix with the dough. You can also swap the dough and apples - first put the dough on the bottom of the mold, then distribute the apples on it. It all depends on your taste and imagination.
It has long been no secret that you can fast with pleasure. Fortunately, there is open access to a huge number of recipes suitable for those who observe the fast. I offer an interesting recipe for lean charlotte. The absence of eggs does not prevent the dough from rising at all, although not so much if it is in the composition of the egg. The taste of the charlotte still resembles a sponge cake, only slightly denser than the traditional one cooked on eggs. A slight taste of honey gives the cake a special unique taste.
Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
