Charlotte is a delicious, almost airy and very healthy apple pie, familiar to almost everyone from early childhood. There are many ways to prepare it. But usually they all require the addition of chicken eggs. However, do not be upset if you are allergic to them, or if you do not eat animal food, that is, you are a vegetarian. There are as many as 3 ways to cook egg-free charlotte.
The first recipe - with kefir and semolina
This is the most common egg-free charlotte recipe and is quite simple to make. You need to take:
• 1 kg of apples;
• a glass of kefir, flour, semolina;
• 1 and 1/3 st. Sahara;
• vanilla sugar;
• a pinch of salt;
• a small spoonful of slaked soda.
First you need to peel the apples and cut them into thin slices. Mix all other ingredients, adding slaked soda last. The dough in its appearance and consistency should resemble sour cream. Put apples in it. Mix. Alternatively, you can divide the dough into 2 parts. Pour one into a frying pan or baking dish, put apples on it, then pour the second part on them. Place for baking in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 40 minutes. Remove from there as soon as the apple charlotte without eggs is ready.
The second recipe - with raisins
To create a charlotte, in this case, neither eggs nor semolina are needed. But a couple of handfuls of raisins will be needed, as well as:
- 2 tbsp. flour;
- A little vanilla and cinnamon;
- 5-6 large apples;
- 1 tbsp. kefir and sugar;
- ¼ tsp citric acid;
- 100 gr. softened butter;
- 1 tsp soda.
Apples should be cut into thin slices, their cores should be thrown out. Rinse the raisins well. Grease a baking dish (you can take a frying pan) with butter and turn on the oven. Then mix all dry ingredients, except apples and raisins, rub soft butter into them, add kefir to them. Mix everything very well. Now it's time to add raisins and apples. Mix everything again and transfer to the mold. Smooth the surface of the cake with damp hands. Put it in the oven for about 30-40 minutes. After the time has passed, the charlotte without eggs and semolina will be ready.
The third recipe is charlotte with sour cream
Another way to cook a vegetarian charlotte without eggs and, in this case, even without kefir. You need to do it like this: grind a pack of soft butter with three yolks and a glass of sugar. Beat the remaining whites into a thick white foam. In 200 g of 15-20% sour cream, carefully add butter with sugar and proteins, as well as a small spoonful of soda and as much flour as the dough takes. The latter should turn out to be liquid, almost like pancakes. Now you need to lay out the apples. To do this, pour one part of the dough into a mold, put fruits cut into small slices on it, pour the remaining dough on top of them. Put the cake in the oven for 30-40 minutes. Thoroughly beaten eggs and mixing time (15 minutes) will give it lightness.
That's all. When the apple charlotte without eggs is ready, you can immediately serve it.
