Russian cuisine: Charlotte (world’s easiest apple pie)

Overview

Easily the simplest recipe of an apple pie belongs to Russian cuisine.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 3 apples
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1 lemon
  • 3 eggs

Cooking

Cut three apples into thin slices, put them all into an oiled baking-pan. Then mix (electric mixer is the best thing you can imagine for this kind of dough) the eggs well to get rich thick foam, then add sugar and mix again, flour – then mix, baking soda – more mix, squeeze the lemon juice into the dough – and finally, mix! Pour this dough over the apples and stick the whole thing into a pre-heated oven. In 25 minutes the Charlotte pie is done!

TIP:

You can add some cinnamon to the dough to give the pie a distinct American taste. The dough will be more refined if you beat first the egg whites into strong foam, then add yolks one by one and all the other ingredients, but it takes a bit longer.

30-45 minutes actually, and 160 Celsius (360 farengheit). I never add lemon, but cinnamon to dough.
