Charlotte with apples and cranberries

I don't know about you, but for me, charlotte is totally a fall dish. In the summer, the abundance of berries allows us the luxury of making a lot of tarts and pies with fresh berries, but with the arrival of cold weather, the only thing left in the hostess arsenal is fresh apples. I have already baked Charlotte with apples and with pears, and this time I decided to diversify it and add berries, or rather the only still available aromatic berries - cranberries (do not confuse seasonal fruits and berries with those plastic winter fruits that are sold in supermarkets). For flavor and "warmth" I sprinkled the charlotte with cinnamon. I was very pleased with the result - a juicy and flavorful pie that is so easy to prepare that you can bake it every day.

«To the Turks, simit – what baguette is to the French. It's not just a bread. It's a way of life. They start their mornings with simit, they eat simit at noon and get a good energy boost...
