Charlotte recipes for diabetics
Baking for diabetics must meet two rules: be healthy and tasty. In order to achieve this, you will need to follow a number of rules. First of all, wheat flour is replaced with rye flour, because the use of low-grade and coarse flour does not affect glucose levels in any way. Making charlotte without sugar involves:
- refusal to use chicken eggs for kneading dough or reducing their quantity to a minimum. However, when boiled, their addition as a filling is acceptable;
- butter is replaced with vegetable oil or, for example, margarine. The lower the concentration of fats, the better;
- Instead of sugar, it is recommended to use any substitute: stevia, fructose. The more natural the product is, the better;
- The ingredients for the filling must be selected especially carefully. For example, it should not be sweet fruits, berries, or other high-calorie foods that can cause an increase in sugar levels.
An important rule is to control the calorie content and glycemic index of baked goods directly during the cooking process (this is very important for type 2 diabetes). It is also advisable to avoid preparing large portions, which will prevent overeating and consumption of stale foods.
The advantage of charlotte as a type of baking is the large selection of different recipes. This could be a classic charlotte with an apple, a pie with kefir and cottage cheese. Baking made with rye flour, as well as pie cooked in a slow cooker, deserve special attention.

Charlotte with apples
To prepare the most common charlotte with apple, use one egg, four apples, 90 g. margarine, cinnamon (half a tsp). We should not forget about the four tbsp. l. honey, 10 gr. baking powder and one glass of flour.
The process of making charlotte with apples without sugar is extremely simple: margarine is melted and mixed with preheated honey. Then eggs are beaten into the margarine, baking powder is added, as well as ingredients such as cinnamon and flour - this is necessary to obtain the dough. Simultaneously:
- apples are peeled and cut into slices;
- Place the fruits in a suitable baking dish and pour in the dietary dough;
- The charlotte should be cooked in the oven for 40 minutes. It is advisable that the temperature be no more than 180 degrees.
Considering that there is no stage of beating sugar and eggs, the apple charlotte will not turn out quite fluffy. Despite this, it will be 100% tasty due to its aroma and freshness.
A variation of the classic charlotte recipe for diabetics is baking with the addition of cottage cheese and kefir. For this we use: three apples, 100 gr. flour, 30 gr. honey, 200 gr. cottage cheese (5% fat is the best option). Additional ingredients are 120 ml of low-fat kefir, one egg and 80 g. margarine.
You can prepare this delicious recipe as follows: peel the apples and cut them into slices. Then they are fried with the addition of butter and honey. This must be done in a frying pan that is suitable for baking. Frying should take no more than five to seven minutes.
The dough is prepared from ingredients such as cottage cheese, kefir, flour and egg, which are beaten with a mixer. Next, the fried fruits are poured into the dough and the charlotte is baked in the oven. It is recommended to do this for no longer than 30 minutes at temperatures of no more than 200 degrees.

A diabetic diet may include charlotte, which is cooked not in the oven, but in a slow cooker. This non-standard recipe will allow a diabetic to save time and also diversify the diet. Another feature of baking in this case is the use of oatmeal, which can act as a complete replacement for flour.
The ingredients for making this charlotte are: five sugar substitute tablets, four apples, one protein, 10 tbsp. l. oatmeal. Also use a small amount of flour and margarine for greasing.

- the whites are cooled and whipped together with a sugar substitute until foamy;

Some housewives do this: first lay out half the dough, then all the fruit, then the rest of the dough. There is a lot of room for creativity here.

Recipe for Charlotte with rye flour, apples and persimmons
Let's prepare the products. Everyone probably already knows that Mistral cane sugar gives baked goods and dishes a unique caramel taste, so I am happy to use it in my recipes.
Beat the eggs and brown sugar with a mixer for 5 minutes until well formed and white.
Add kefir, mix lightly and add sifted rye flour and baking powder.
Knead the dough at low speed or with a spatula
This is how thick it turns out.
Peel the persimmon apples and cut into medium cubes.
Turn on the oven to preheat to 200 degrees. Grease the mold with butter and lightly sprinkle with flour.
Place apples and persimmons in a mold, lightly sprinkle with powdered sugar and cinnamon (about 0.5 tbsp. Sprinkles)

4. Cover the bottom of the baking dish with parchment or grease with butter. Pour in half the batter, smoothing it out with a silicone spatula.
5. Place all the apples over the entire surface, sprinkle them with cinnamon and fill with the remaining dough.
6. Bake the charlotte in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 30 minutes. Baking time will depend on your oven.
7. Take out the charlotte, let it cool and remove from the mold. That's all. A very simple recipe for classic charlotte, which always turns out fluffy.
