Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6½-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper as well.
Toss the sliced apples with lime juice to prevent browning. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the eggs, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until light and creamy. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour about 1/3 of the batter into the prepared springform pan. Arrange the apple slices evenly over the batter, then top with the remaining batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes.
Carefully run a knife around the edge of the springform pan to loosen the Charlotte. Release the springform and invert the apple Charlotte onto a plate. Immediately flip it again onto a serving platter so the top is facing up.
