White bread and apples are combined to make the British delicacy known as Apple Charlotte, which is baked in a molded pan. The cake recipe I use in my version is simple and tastes just as good, if not better. And the molded pan is not necessary! Serve either at room temperature with a dusting of powdered sugar or warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Yield: | 1 apple charlotte |
Ingredients
- nonstick cooking spray
- 3 cups peeled and diced apples
- 1 lime, juiced
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 6.5-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray and line with parchment paper. Spray parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.
- Toss apples with lime juice and set aside. Mix flour, cinnamon, ginger, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- Combine eggs with brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract in a second bowl and beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour about 1/3 of the batter into the prepared pan. Add apples and top with remaining batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for 15 minutes.
- Run a knife around the springform pan, release springform, and flip apple Charlotte onto a plate. Immediately flip the cake onto a serving platter.

Can’t take a picture because my son ate the whole thing the minute I turned my back. I did get the first piece and it was delicious
Extremely easy to make. I used 4 large ramakins. Sprayed . Cut circles for bottoms and sides.and then sprayed again. Note. Next time I will make 1/2more of liquid for more on top after filling. Baked at 350 &checked every 3 minutes so as to not overbake. Turned over on individual plates: bottom side up after cooling. Wrapped with plastic wrap. After dinner placed 1 in microwave for 20 seconds. Don’t forget to take off wrap. Totally best cake I ever made. Next time I could add nuts, or raisins
So good, so easy. Will make again
