Gluten-free baked Apple Charlotte recipe

I love this combination of ingredients – apples mixed with brown sugar, dried fruit and nuts – in all its guises, whether crumbles, strudels or simple baked apples. Of them all, however, this pudding has to be my absolute favourite, with the dates adding an irresistibly gooey, brownie like texture. It’s easy to make and wonderful served hot with a pouring of oat cream or custard. It’s also delicious eaten cold, cut into slices and enjoyed as a treat – bear that in mind if there’s any left!

You will need a shallow ovenproof dish, approximately 10 x20cm/4 x 8in in size, for this recipe.

Step-by-step

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas mark 6 and lightly grease the ovenproof dish.
  2. Chop the dates and walnuts into small pieces, then peel and core the apples and cut into 2cm/¾in chunks.
  3. Melt the margarine in a small saucepan and sift the flour into a large bowl, making a well in the centre. Pour the melted margarine into the flour with the rice milk and the egg replacer mixture and beat together until you have a smooth and glossy batter (add a dash more milk if you think it necessary), and then continue to beat lightly for another 1–2 minutes.
  4. Add the sugar, dates, walnuts and apples to the batter and mix thoroughly before pouring into the ovenproof dish. Spread the mixture evenly in the dish and bake in the oven for 45–50 minutes until golden and cooked through (a skewer or cocktail stick inserted into the centre of the pudding should come out clean). Remove from the oven and serve while hot.
