Charlotte recipes in the oven
Low-calorie charlotte with apples is a recipe that helps you “keep in shape” and not give up a delicious dessert. When baking in the oven, just grease the pan with low-fat butter or sprinkle with flour.
Kefir is a fermented milk drink made from cow's milk, which has a beneficial effect on the intestinal microflora and helps fight various diseases. The fat content of kefir is indicated as a percentage. For dietary charlotte with apples on kefir, it is better to choose a 1% product containing about 40 kcal per 100 grams, but by choosing 3.2% kefir, you do not risk gaining much weight, since the calorie content of the latter is about 55 kcal per 100 grams.
- sweet apples, preferably red - 4-5 pcs.;
- fresh 1% kefir - half a glass or 120 ml;
- premium wheat flour - 1 cup or 130 g;
- fresh chicken egg - 1 pc.;
- white from 2 eggs;
- honey - 4 tablespoons;
- baking powder - 1 sachet;
- lemon juice - 1 tablespoon.
- First, wash, peel and cut the red apples into cubes, add a few tablespoons of honey to them. Leave until they release their juice.
- In a small bowl, mix kefir with baking powder.
- Beat the egg whites with fresh lemon juice until smooth and fluffy. Separately beat the yolk of one egg.
- Mix kefir and eggs. And then add flour. Gently stir the dough from bottom to top.
- Pour apples and honey into the prepared dough. And pour the dough into a special mold, previously greased with flour.
- Preheat the oven to 190 degrees and bake for 30 minutes until cooked through and golden brown. Cool slightly, remove from pan and serve warm.
Interestingly, you can make fresh kefir yourself at home. To do this, take the milk, heat it to a temperature of about 90 degrees, but do not boil, then pour it into a glass or clay container, add the starter (a few tablespoons of ready-made kefir), a crust of stale bread and put it in a warm place for a couple of days.
With "Hercules"
“Hercules” is a type of oatmeal that is good for health, because it is a storehouse of carbohydrates that allow a person to maintain the level of vital energy at the proper level. In addition, 100 grams of dry product contains about 350 calories.
- sweet red apples - 5 pcs.;
- kefir 1% - half a glass;
- water - a quarter glass;
- white from 3 eggs;
- bee honey - 4 tablespoons;
- oatmeal - half a glass;
- flour, preferably rye - half a glass;
- soda - half a teaspoon;
- cinnamon - to taste.
- Beat the whites with a mixer until light and homogeneous.
- Put soda and oatmeal in kefir, add a little water so that they swell in the kefir mass.
- Add flour to kefir, then liquid honey. Lastly, fold in the egg whites, whipped until fluffy. Mix everything carefully and let it brew for a couple of minutes.
- At this time, preheat the oven to 190 degrees. Grate the apples on a coarse grater, mixing them with cinnamon. Add fruit to dough.
- Bake in the oven at 190 degrees for 35 minutes in a mold greased with vegetable or olive oil or sprinkled with flour.
For charlotte with Hercules and apples, you can serve light kefir cream, which is prepared from 2.5% kefir and powdered sugar, whipped with a mixer into a fluffy foam. You can also make a similar cream from low-fat soft cottage cheese.
In low-calorie recipes, flour is often replaced with semolina. Let's prepare a dietary charlotte with apples without flour based on it.
- apples - 5 medium;
- semolina - 1 glass;
- kefir, preferably 1% - 1 glass;
- white from 2 eggs;
- powdered sugar - 2-3 tablespoons;
- rapeseed oil - 1 teaspoon;
- vanillin - 1 tablespoon.
- Soak semolina in kefir and leave to swell for an hour.
- Then add egg whites, whisked and mashed with powdered sugar and vanillin, to the prepared mixture of semolina swollen in kefir.
- In a baking dish greased with rapeseed oil, cut the red fruits into thin slices, and pour the resulting kefir dough on top. Bake for 40 minutes at 200 degrees.
Flour in the recipe can be replaced not only with semolina, but also with dietary bran: rye, oat and others.
Preparing dietary fruit filling
As you know, fruits also have different caloric content. Sugar-free charlotte will be most healthy if you use sour apples as the filling. The Antonovka variety is ideal for this. Such fruits have a fairly dense structure and look aesthetically pleasing in the finished pie.
Pears can also be used in dessert, but they must first be simmered in a frying pan. This applies to hard green varieties.
In order to use dried fruits as a filling, they also need to be prepared first. Well-washed fruits are poured with boiling water and left until the water cools completely. Then the fruits are laid out on a towel and excess moisture is removed. If you don't do this, the bottom of the cake will be too wet and won't bake properly.
Fruits with seeds and tender pulp cannot be used as a filling. It is also worth remembering that when preparing apples and pears, the peel must be peeled. To prevent the prepared fruits from darkening while waiting for pouring, they can be dipped in lightly salted water and dried with a towel before placing.
The prepared batter is poured onto the apples and dried fruits placed in the mold and baked at 200 degrees for 20 minutes.
Curd apple charlotte
The most unusual way to prepare a pie is curd apple charlotte. Of course, compared to previous recipes, it is higher in calories, but has an even more extraordinary taste. There are 150 kilocalories per 100 g.
Ingredients:
- Corn flour – 60 g;
- 2 sweet apples;
- Chicken egg – 1 pc.;
- Packaging of low-fat cottage cheese;
- Sugar substitute – 1 tsp;
- Baking powder – 0.5 tsp.
How to make curd apple charlotte
Beat the eggs, adding sweetener, add rye flour. Then mix the resulting dough until smooth. Pour cottage cheese into this mixture and beat thoroughly with a mixer. Cut the pre-peeled apples into small cubes. Add them to the resulting mass and mix well. Place the pie in the oven for 25–40 minutes, preheated to 190 degrees.
You should get a very airy apple charlotte. A good solution would also be to add lemon zest for extra extravagance.
Preparing a pie without flour: cottage cheese and regular charlotte
Among women, sweet tooths are 2 times more common than among men - this has been proven by scientists from many countries. I have a sweet tooth, I can’t imagine morning coffee without a piece of chocolate or a cup of aromatic tea at lunch without a fragrant bun. I am sure that among you, my dear readers, there are many of my “unfortunate” friends. I have been looking for a long time for a recipe for delicious homemade baking with a minimum amount of calories - and I found an amazing recipe for charlotte without flour.
What can replace flour in pies? We, slender and beautiful sweet tooths, should stop using wheat flour in baking. You can reduce the calorie content of a dish using oatmeal, bran, and replace wheat flour with corn, rye, and buckwheat.
Apple charlotte with oatmeal
The only small drawback is that when replacing wheat flour, the cake loses its fluffiness somewhat. Therefore, you need to beat the dough very thoroughly, saturating it with oxygen as much as possible.
What we need:
- oat flakes – 110 g;
- apples – 450–470 g;
- egg whites – 4 pcs.;
- stevia – 5 g;
- baking powder – 5 g.
- Let's start cooking. We take the simplest, cheapest oatmeal and grind it in a blender or coffee grinder. If you have oatmeal, great, feel free to use it, save energy and time. Add baking powder to oatmeal.
- Using whites instead of a whole egg allows you to reduce the calorie content of the pie, since most of the calories are contained in the yolk.
- The whites need to be mixed with stevia and whipped with a mixer into a fluffy elastic foam.
- Mix the flour and egg whites very carefully - mix from bottom to top to keep the dough airy.
- Cut the apples into arbitrary pieces - I like them cut into thin slices.
- Pour the dough into a silicone mold and place the apples on top. Cook the charlotte in the oven for about 30–35 minutes, set the oven temperature at 180 degrees.
So, what other dessert will help you lose weight? This…
Cottage cheese diet pie with apples without eggs on kefir
In the photo: a dietary version of charlotte - the delight of slender sweet tooths
What I love about charlotte is its simplicity. We often make this pie with our daughter – it turns out incredibly delicious! But she just can’t break the eggs neatly. And one day she asked me if it was possible to bake pies without eggs.
And this is an idea, I thought: after all, it’s the eggs that make baked goods rich, and if you remove them, the dish will become less caloric. But the quality and taste of the charlotte should not suffer. I hasten to share with you, my dear readers, a recipe for a delicious and aromatic pie that does not contain a single egg. The dough for this charlotte is prepared with kefir, which makes it airy.
We will need:
- oat flour – 150–160 g;
- olive oil – 15 ml;
- kefir 2.5% – 150 ml;
- baking powder – 5 g;
- cottage cheese 9% – 110–130 g;
- apples – 400 g;
- fructose – 5 g;
- stevia – 3 g.
- ground cinnamon.
- First, we need to beat kefir with cottage cheese, fructose and stevia into a homogeneous mass.
- Then we will add oil.
- In a separate container, mix the sifted flour with baking powder.
- Cut the apples into slices and sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Set the oven temperature to 180 degrees
- Combine the contents of both bowls, mix, and pour the dough into the mold. Place the apple slices beautifully on top.
- Place the pie in the oven. The cooking time depends on the thickness of the pie, but after 20 minutes you can start checking the doneness with a toothpick.
Rules for preparing dietary baked goods
There are a large number of recipes for dietary baking, and a very large proportion of them are recipes for dietary apple pies. A diet pie recipe can contain less than 100 calories. How to make a pie recipe as dietary as possible:
- Almost all pies, including apple pies, contain eggs, and the yolks of chicken eggs are very high in calories. A dietary sponge cake recipe can be prepared using only proteins, and its taste will remain unchanged.
- Diet pies recipes rarely include white flour. If you use it, then only from durum wheat; you can also use chickpea, buckwheat, oatmeal or corn flour. In a pinch, semolina will do.
- It is better to replace sugar with honey or a sweetener.
- Apple pie is often made with full-fat butter or margarine. The dietary recipe will work just fine without this ingredient. It can be replaced with sour cream with a reduced fat content, which will not affect the taste of the finished baked goods.
- Apple pie can be supplemented with bran or whole grains; they normalize intestinal function.
- If the recipe contains cottage cheese, it is better to choose low-fat cottage cheese. This method can reduce the calorie content of baked goods.
- Sour cream in the pies recipe can be replaced with natural yogurt or low-fat kefir.
- It is better to limit the consumption of nuts, since, despite the benefits, they are very high in calories. You need to add them in a minimal amount to a dietary pie recipe.
- Chocolate baking recipes often include milk chocolate, but it is very harmful to your figure. It is better to replace it with dark chocolate or cocoa powder.
- In order for the pie to turn out dietary, there is no need to grease the pan with oil. Just cover it with parchment paper and sprinkle with semolina.
Even more recipes: oatmeal without flour
Both adults and even children know about the benefits of oatmeal, but rarely do any children eat oatmeal with pleasure. We offer dietary charlotte made from oatmeal; its taste will pleasantly surprise your household.

- 50 gr. dried apricots;
- 4 eggs;
- 1 package vanelin;

- Beat the whites of 4 eggs separately with 2 tablespoons of sugar until stiff.
- Add yolks, vanillin (1 sachet) and baking powder (1 sachet) to the whites.

Oatmeal charlotte, gluten-free, egg-free and casein-free
The basis of the baked goods is oat flour, and if you want a healthy dish, look for the “Gluten Free” label. Charlotte will have a more pronounced taste than wheat products and high humidity. The list of ingredients also includes oat milk - a rather rare product that is served in specialized stores. You can substitute more affordable products, but I recommend taking the time to find the ingredients you need.
Finally, I would like to note that charlotte can be made not only from apples. There are options with pears, peaches or bananas, and you can also make a fruit mix. And in combination with properly prepared, tender and airy dough, you will get the perfect pie. If you liked the recipes in today's episode, share them with your friends on social networks.

Diet charlotte with apples without flour
Another simple way to make low-calorie charlotte is to cook it without flour. Ground oatmeal can easily replace flour in the dough (you can grind it yourself in a coffee grinder, blender or food processor at home). To create a rich, sweet taste in baked goods, use well-sweet apple fruits.
To enhance the taste, we will additionally use the sweetener stevia, and also add a little cinnamon and vanilla. All this will help enhance the overall sweetness of the baked goods, but the calories will remain “sit” almost in place.
Ingredients
- Oatmeal – 100 g;
- Apples – 3-4 pcs.;
- Baking powder – 1 tsp;
- Egg white – 4 pcs.;
- Stevia – 1 tsp.
Recipe for baking charlotte in a slow cooker
- Grind oatmeal into flour.
- Separate the whites from the yolks and mix them with stevia.
- Combine the resulting mass with oatmeal and add baking powder.
- Finally, add cinnamon and vanilla to the dough.
- Place apple slices on the bottom of the multicooker, fill them with dough, and cook the pie until done (about 40 minutes) in the “Baking” mode. It will take the same amount of time to bake the charlotte in the oven.
It is not recommended to open the multicooker immediately after cooking. Let the charlotte spend 10-15 minutes under a closed lid; such simmering will only benefit the delicate pie.
Pie with apples without sugar and kefir
Kefir charlotte without sugar turns out very tasty. Fermented milk products are added to slightly dilute the coarse fiber of buckwheat or oatmeal. This should be done while kneading the flour by hand. According to the classic dessert recipe, you will need 100 ml of kefir. This ingredient adds a slightly creamy flavor to the cake and partially functions as butter.
You can also prepare a diet charlotte with cottage cheese. This product will partially replace flour. Naturally, cottage cheese should be low-fat. This ingredient is added to the dough while kneading the flour by hand. Each housewife determines the dosage to her own taste.
Apple pie without butter
The absence of such a component in the dough as butter significantly reduces the overall calorie content of the pie.
Adding low-fat milk increases the protein content. To prepare you need:
- 700 g apples;
- 1 cup flour;
- 75 ml skim milk;
- 2 eggs;
- 90 g sugar;
- zest of one lemon;
- a pinch of salt;
- 3 tsp. baking powder.
Peel the apples, remove the seeds, cut the fruit into thin slices. Place the eggs, sugar, lemon zest and salt in a large bowl and beat with a mixer until stiff peaks form. Add flour, baking powder, milk and mix until smooth. Add two thirds of the apples directly to the dough and stir.
Place the dough in a baking dish, which must be greased and floured in advance. Place the remaining apple slices on top of the pie. You can sprinkle a little cinnamon or sugar. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Bake the pie for 35 minutes, check for doneness with a dry stick. 100 g of this apple pie contains 120 calories.
Apple biscuit charlotte
The classic charlotte recipe does not contain oil and therefore is a low-calorie dessert.
It is necessary to prepare biscuit dough, which is poured into a layer of fresh apples. To prepare you need:
- 1 cup of sugar;
- 3 eggs;
- 1 cup flour;
- half tsp baking powder;
- 1 tsp. cinnamon;
- 2-3 apples.
Beat the eggs well with sugar. Mix flour with baking powder and add to egg mixture. Mix everything thoroughly with a mixer. Grease a baking dish and place apple slices on the bottom. Sprinkle apples with cinnamon and fill with batter. Cook the pie at 180 degrees in the oven for half an hour. This recipe is also suitable for baking in a slow cooker.

Apple pie for diabetics. Charlotte recipes for diabetics
The advantage of charlotte as a type of baking is the large selection of different recipes. This could be a classic charlotte with an apple, a pie with kefir and cottage cheese. Baking made with rye flour, as well as pie cooked in a slow cooker, deserve special attention.
Charlotte with apples
It is important to know! Pharmacies have been deceiving me for so long! A cure for diabetes has been found that treats Read more…
To prepare the most common charlotte with apple, use one egg, four apples, 90 g. margarine, cinnamon (half a tsp). We should not forget about the four tbsp. l. honey, 10 gr. baking powder and one glass of flour.
The process of making charlotte with apples without sugar is extremely simple: margarine is melted and mixed with preheated honey. Then eggs are beaten into the margarine, baking powder is added, as well as ingredients such as cinnamon and flour - this is necessary to obtain the dough. Simultaneously:
- apples are peeled and cut into slices;
- Place the fruits in a suitable baking dish and pour in the dietary dough;
- The charlotte should be cooked in the oven for 40 minutes. It is advisable that the temperature be no more than 180 degrees.
Considering that there is no stage of beating sugar and eggs, the apple charlotte will not turn out quite fluffy. Despite this, it will be 100% tasty due to its aroma and freshness.
Pie with kefir and cottage cheese
A variation of the classic charlotte recipe for diabetics is baking with the addition of cottage cheese and kefir. For this we use: three apples, 100 gr. flour, 30 gr. honey, 200 gr. cottage cheese (5% fat is the best option). Additional ingredients are 120 ml of low-fat kefir, one egg and 80 g. margarine.
You can prepare this delicious recipe as follows: peel the apples and cut them into slices. Then they are fried with the addition of butter and honey. This must be done in a frying pan that is suitable for baking. Frying should take no more than five to seven minutes.
The dough is prepared from ingredients such as cottage cheese, kefir, flour and egg, which are beaten with a mixer. Next, the fried fruits are poured into the dough and the charlotte is baked in the oven. It is recommended to do this for no longer than 30 minutes at temperatures of no more than 200 degrees.
Baking with rye flour
Sugar-free charlotte can also be prepared with rye flour. As you know, the latter is healthier than wheat due to the fact that its glycemic index is lower.
Nutritionists recommend using 50% rye and 50% regular flour when preparing baked goods, but this ratio can be 70 to 30 or even more.
To prepare the pie, a diabetic will need to use:
- 100 gr. rye flour and an arbitrary amount of wheat;
- one chicken egg, which can be replaced with quail eggs (no more than three);
- 100 gr. fructose;
- four apples;
- a small amount of margarine for greasing.
The cooking process begins by whisking eggs and fructose for five minutes. Then sifted flour is poured into this composition. At the same time, the apples are peeled and cut into small pieces, which are mixed with the dough. The greased form is filled with dough. The temperature should be no more than 180 degrees, and the baking time should be about 45 minutes.
Multicooker recipe
A diabetic diet may include charlotte, which is cooked not in the oven, but in a slow cooker. This non-standard recipe will allow a diabetic to save time and also diversify the diet. Another feature of baking in this case is the use of oatmeal, which can act as a complete replacement for flour.
The ingredients for making this charlotte are: five sugar substitute tablets, four apples, one protein, 10 tbsp. l. oatmeal. Also use a small amount of flour and margarine for greasing.
The cooking process is as follows:
- the whites are cooled and whipped together with a sugar substitute until foamy;
- apples are peeled and cut into slices;
- flour and oatmeal are added to the proteins and mixed carefully;
- Combine the dough and apples and place in a pre-greased bowl.
To fully prepare baked goods, the multicooker must be programmed to the “baking” mode. Usually 50 minutes are enough for this, after which it is recommended to wait for the pie to cool. Only after this will it be completely ready for use.
Diet pie with kefir
You can make jellied apple pie using kefir with reduced calorie content. The dough is kneaded with kefir. To minimize the amount of fat in dessert, you should choose kefir with zero fat content.
The following products are needed:
- 4 apples;
- 120 ml kefir;
- 1 cup flour;
- 3 eggs (we will use 1 whole egg and two whites);
- 4 tablespoons honey;
- 1 teaspoon baking powder;
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice.
Cut the apples into small cubes and mix them with liquid honey. Leave for half an hour so that the fruits release juice.
Advice! If you only have candied honey on hand, you need to warm it up a little. It is convenient to do this in the microwave; it will take 2-3 seconds to heat up.
Pour kefir into a bowl for kneading dough, add baking powder and mashed yolk. Mix everything. Gradually add flour, kneading the mixture well so that no lumps form. Add apples with honey (do not drain the juice).
Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt and lemon juice until fluffy. Add the whites to the kefir dough and mix gently.
We moisten the silicone mold from the inside with a small amount of water and lightly “powder” it with flour, pour out the prepared mixture with pieces of apples. If the mold is only metal, you will have to grease it with oil. Bake for about forty minutes at 190 degrees.
Historical birth of the recipe
The classic recipe for apple charlotte was borrowed from English cookbooks. The modern apple pie recipe is slightly different from the original. Initially, the baked goods looked like fluffy apple pudding topped with various sweet sauces. For example, in Germany, charlotte was baked from ordinary bread with the addition of fruit mass and butter cream. This recipe still exists and enjoys some popularity. Over time, all apple pies made with biscuit dough began to be called charlotte.
Nowadays, cooks have simplified the recipe as much as possible. It has become more accessible, but due to its caloric content, some housewives are forced to refrain from such baking. Then inventive confectioners offered several options for dietary preparation of charlotte, replacing some ingredients.

- Place the apples on the bottom of the mold randomly or in a pattern, sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon and fill with the prepared dough.
- Baking lasts 40 minutes in an oven preheated to 180°C.

Charlotte with cornmeal. Corn charlotte
Step-by-step recipes for making charlotte with corn flour in the traditional version, from two types of flour, with plums and pears
Option 1: Classic corn charlotte recipe
In general, you can make corn charlotte from fine or coarse flour. If you use corn flour instead of wheat flour, you will get tasty and healthy baked goods no worse than traditional ones.
Ingredients:
- a glass of corn flour;
- four apples;
- four chicken eggs;
- a glass of sugar.
Step-by-step recipe for corn charlotte
Step 1:
Let's start cooking with the dough. Take a deep bowl, break all the eggs into it and beat with a mixer. You should get a fluffy and airy foam.
Step 2:
Pour granulated sugar into the eggs and beat with a mixer until creamy.
Step 3:
Now slowly add the corn flour. Stir gently from top to bottom. The dough should absorb all the flour.
Step 4:
Let's start with the filling. Wash the apples, remove the peel if desired; we don’t need the core with seeds either. You need to cut into thin slices.
Step 5:
Take a fireproof pan, grease it with butter or sprinkle it with a little flour. This way, the baked goods will not burn and will be easy to remove after cooking in the oven.
Step 6:
Place the apple slices on the bottom of the mold, distributing them evenly over the entire surface.
Step 7:
Now pour the dough onto the filling, filling all the openings completely.
Step 8:
Preheat the oven to 180 C and simmer the charlotte for forty minutes. If the baked goods are not ready by this time, then bake for a quarter of an hour, but the temperature must be increased to 190 C.
To prevent the dough from falling off, cool the baked goods directly in the oven.
