Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. To prepare charlotte with apples and cranberries we will need: for the dough — flour; eggs; sugar; vanilla sugar; for filling — cranberries; apple. I prepared exactly half the portion for a mold 16 cm in diameter. And I give the products for a shape of 20-24 cm.

Step 2

Step 2
Combine eggs with sugar and vanilla sugar.

Step 3

Step 3
Beat everything with a mixer until smooth. You should get a fluffy mass. You donʼt need to beat the eggs for very long. If you overbeat the eggs, the sponge cake will not rise. The mass should lighten, but retain a yellowish tint. A completely white mass is a sign of overbeaten eggs, from which all the air has gone. In this case, the biscuit will not rise and will not be fluffy even with baking powder. If whipped correctly, the mass will increase 3 times, and many bubbles will appear on the surface.
