Probably, there will not be a single hostess in the world who would not periodically bake for her family (and especially her beloved children) some delicious apple pie. The recipe is most often selected with a bulk biscuit base. It is understandable - such a dough is prepared quickly and does not require special attention to itself. And it seemed - what else can be said about all known charlotte? It turns out a lot. Because you can make apple pie from yeast dough, you can - from lean; there are recipes for open goodies, and there are closed cakes ... In general, you can’t list everything! But even if you are accustomed to using only your own recipe, proven and inherited from your grandmother, take a chance to try one of the suggested ones - and maybe already two ways to cook charlotte will be inherited.
Unusual layered version
If you use this recipe, you get a crispy and delicious apple pie. The recipe is quite simple in execution. Only 4 tablespoons with the top of a spoon of flour and the same amount of sugar are taken. Both are mixed, a bag of baking powder and 2 beaten eggs are added. After thorough mixing, half a glass of milk is poured - and mixed again. Then a tablespoon of brandy and two of vegetable oil are introduced. Now the mixture must be carefully beaten with a blender, whisk or mixer. Pieces four large apples are peeled, seeds are removed, and the fruits themselves are cut into thin slices (not slices, not slices, otherwise the result will be different). Apples are laid in the dough; the trick is that it is scarce, and there are quite a few fruits, as a result, they practically absorb the base. A frying pan or a mold is greased, a workpiece is poured there and sent for half an hour to the oven, heated to 200 degrees. During this time, an egg with four and a half tablespoons of sugar is beaten. In the process of obtaining the foam, melted butter (3 large spoons) is added. When the apple pie is ready, it must be poured with the mixture, sprinkled with almonds and a spoonful of sugar and put back another ten minutes - until a golden crisp appears. The recipe recommends eating such a delicious apple pie cold - the taste of baking powder or eggs will disappear, and the dish itself will crumble less.
Yeast Dough Apple Pie
It is better, of course, to prepare the basis yourself. To do this, a pound of flour is mixed with half a teaspoon of salt, they are sifted into a bowl, and a hole is made in the hill. A glass of warmed (but not hot!) Milk with yeast diluted in it and 4 tablespoons of melted butter is poured there, 2 eggs are driven in and sugar is poured (a couple of large spoons). All components are kneaded, the container is covered with a clean, dry towel and placed in heat for an hour. Then the dough is crushed and set again - it should rise twice.
When ready, the base is divided into two unequal parts. The one that is larger is laid out in a greased pan and stretched over it. In this case, it is necessary to slightly press down to the bottom and walls so that it does not pull together again. Peeled apples (five pieces) cut into small slices are laid out inside, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon.
Then you can do different things. The first option: cover with the second part of the dough, pinch the edges and make several cuts in the “lid” so that the steam comes out. Second: an apple pie is made open, that is, the rest of the dough is divided into strips or flagella, which are stretched along the surface of the cake and fixed on the sides. In both cases, the top is smeared with egg or milk, and the product is placed in the oven. Such an apple pie from yeast dough turns out to be lush and tender in both open and closed versions.
Puff pastry is also useful
It takes a lot longer and harder to cook than usual. Therefore, those who are not too friends with baking can use the purchased, ready-made. And those who are confident in their abilities do the following: they prepare the dough according to the previous recipe, and after it suits the second time, roll it out, grease it with thinly sunflower oil, fold it in half and roll it out again. And so on until you get tired, but at least four times. Filling and baking are similar to those described above. If you are not too lazy, you get an apple pie from a yeast dough not only airy, but also slightly crunchy when eaten. Moreover, for such a recipe it is better not to completely close your culinary masterpiece. Suppose you have an apple pie open, then it can be greased on top (naturally, when baked) with apricot jam, which will give it an even more delicious look.
Sour cream apple pie
In principle, as fast in preparation as the usual biscuit charlotte. To bake an apple pie on sour cream, beat three eggs with a glass of sugar. Having achieved a dense foam, pour a glass of sour cream with soda mixed in it into the container (half a small spoon). The mass must be beaten again. The last meal is the flour (the same glass), and the dough is mixed. Diced apples or slices are distributed by mass, which, together with them, is poured into a frying pan. Baking apple pie on sour cream will be forty minutes at 180 degrees. As you can see, cooking it is not at all difficult.
Vegetarian recipe: no eggs, no sour cream
Quite a lot of people refuse animal food today. They can bake an open apple pie without ingredients unacceptable to them. It is made from flour, semolina and sugar, taken in a glass. A bag of baking powder is added there. You can enter vanilla if you like it. Apples (about a kilogram) are peeled and rubbed on a grater. And the form is filled with layers: the dough is apples. There should be at least three layers. The top is sprinkled with vanilla sugar (again, if you have nothing against it) and grated butter. In the oven, such an invention of culinary thought will spend three quarters of an hour. It must cool before cutting.
