Adviсe

If you don’t have a blender at home, you can chop the lemon using a meat grinder.
The container for beating eggs must be clean and dry so that the mixture beats well.
Instead of wheat flour, you can use any other flour—gluten-free, low-calorie, with micronutrients—the main thing is to check the correct proportions.
For baking charlotte, it is best to use a springform pan - this makes removing the pie much easier.
The exact baking time for the charlotte depends on the characteristics of your oven, so this point must be taken into account in any recipe.

Design and submission

It is best to serve the lemon charlotte slightly warm so that the aroma and flavor of the citrus dough can be more vividly revealed.

As always, you can decorate the pie with powdered sugar. This is the best way to present the dish beautifully, sweetening the pastry without distracting from the main attraction—the dough and filling.

Lemon charlotte will go harmoniously with fresh and frozen sweet and sour berries: blueberries, currants, raspberries.
