How to make a lush charlotte with apples on kefir? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Go for apples in sour-sweet or sweet varieties. Sugar can be adjusted up or down depending on the acid or sweetness of the apples, as well as taste preferences. Pre-sift the flour through a sieve to saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the finished pie will be more magnificent.

In a separate glass, mix the kefir heated to room temperature with soda and leave for 1-2 minutes. In a fermented milk medium, soda will quickly react. Kefir will begin to foam and increase slightly in volume.

To make the dough, whisk the eggs with the sugar a little. It is not necessary to beat strongly. Enough that everything blends well and begins to turn into foam.

Pour kefir and soda to the eggs and stir. When mixing, you can see that the whole mass is covered with bubbles. Due to this, the dough will rise well when baking.

Pour in the flour and knead the dough until smooth so there are no lumps of flour left. To do this, you can use a mixer.

The finished dough is quite thick. In consistency, it looks like dough for fritters.

Wash the apples and cut into large pieces. I leave the peel. If desired, it can be cut off.

For baking, it is convenient to use a detachable form. Cover a baking dish (18 cm in diameter) with parchment paper and pour out 2/3 of the dough. Spread the prepared apples over the entire surface of the dough. If desired, apples can be sprinkled with a small amount of cinnamon.

Pour the remaining dough onto the apples. Place the tin in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 40-50 minutes. The exact time depends on the oven itself. The pie should become a mouth-watering golden colour.

The readiness of the pie can be checked with a wooden skewer. Pierce the pie with it and pull it out straight away. If it's dry, then the pie is ready.

Remove the finished pie from the tin and cool a little. You can sprinkle it with icing sugar.

Have a nice tea party!
