Evgeny Klopotenko added that to prepare the batter for the charlotte, combine 5 eggs, 200 g of sugar, 5 g of vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl – beat everything with a mixer until a white foam forms.

Once the mixture has increased in volume by 3-4 times, gently fold in 200 g of flour using a spatula until the flour is fully incorporated into the batter.

Grease the charlotte pan with 20 g of butter and dust it with flour.

Next, pour the batter into the pan, smooth it out with a spatula, and evenly layer the apples on top of the batter.

Bake the charlotte in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes in convection mode.
