Hot Desserts Recipes - Apple Charlotte Recipe
Ingredients
Serves 4-6
Method:
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas mark 4.
-
Peel, core
and slice the apples and put them in a pan with the
caster sugar and 25g/1 oz of the butter. Add the water,
cover the pan and stew gently over a low heat
for 10 minutes. Then
remove the lid, stir and turn up the heat, continuing to
cook until you have a thick puree. Stir in the lemon
juice and apricot jam and reserve.
-
Melt the remaining
butter and cut the crusts off the slices of white bread.
Cut the bread into fingers, brush with the butter and
use them to line a 20cm/8in mould or soufflé dish. Pour
in the puree and cover the top with more butter-soaked
bread.
-
Bake on a baking sheet in the oven for 35
minutes, when the top will be crisp and golden brown.
Remove and leave to cool for 10 minutes before sliding a
palette knife round the edge and turning out on to a
serving dish.
-
Cut into wedges and serve with cream or
ice-cream.
