Apple Charlotte
Delicious apple charlotte made from scratch. It’s a very easy and simple recipe for an apple charlotte that looks great and has the perfect balance between tart and sweet. I usually buy kefir in small grocery stores but sometimes you can find it in the usual stores as well. If you can’t find kefir, it can always be replaced by plain yogurt or buttermilk. I also use kefir for my Blini recipe, Hychiny, Chebureki.
For this recipe, use green or sour apples. Instead of sweet crumbs you can just use flour. Make sure the kefir (buttermilk or yogurt), flour and other ingredients are completely blended, free of lumps and smooth before adding the apples. Great idea for dessert on Thanksgiving or Christmas!
