Apple Charlotte is a traditional French dessert that originates from the 18th century. It is essentially a bread pudding made with layers of bread and sautéed apples, baked until golden and crispy on top. This recipe, from Chef Tyler Florence, adds a twist to the classic dessert by serving it with a Cinnamon Sabayon. This is a custard-like sauce made with eggs, sugar, and cinnamon, and is the perfect accompaniment to the warm and comforting flavors of the Apple Charlotte. This dessert is perfect for special occasions, or for when you are craving something sweet and indulgent.
