Ingredients
- 6 medium cooking apples
- 4 ounces (125 g / 1 stick) butter plus butter for greasing a baking dish
- 2 ounces (50 g / 4 tablespoons ) white sugar
- 1 ounce (25 g / 1 rounded tablespoon) white sugar for decoration
- 2 eggs , well beaten
- 4 ounces (125 g / 1 cup) breadcrumbs
- ¼ pint (150 ml) water
- Squeeze of lemon juice
Directions
Peel and core the apples, slice them, and place in a saucepan with the water.
Cook until soft (similar to applesauce), then remove from heat and add butter, sugar and lemon juice; mix well.
While this is cooling, beat the eggs very well. When the apple mixture is cool, mix in the eggs as well.
Butter a deep baking dish and spread the breadcrumbs around it so that they stick to the bottom and the sides, keeping a good amount for the top.
Pour the apple and egg mixture into the dish and cover with a thick layer of breadcrumbs.
Bake in a moderate oven (350°F / 180°C / Gas Mark 4) for about half an hour.
Turn out onto a flat dish and sprinkle with sugar before serving.
