Ingredients
  • butter, for greasing the pie dish and bread
  • 9 slices bread, crusts removed
  • 6 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thinly (peel reserved)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • sugar, to taste
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Butter a pie dish and the bread slices. Place a layer of bread at the bottom, then a layer of apples. Sprinkle over these a portion of the lemon zest and juice, and sweeten with sugar. Place another layer of bread, and then apples, proceeding in this manner until the dish is full.
  3. Then cover it up with the peel of the apples, to preserve the top from browning or burning. Bake in the oven for about 45-50 minutes; turn the charlotte onto a dish, sprinkle sugar on top, and serve.
