Ingredients:
12 large apples
Grated peel of 1 lemon
Water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
6 eggs
1 quart milk (4 cups)
Pinch of nutmeg
Directions:
- Pare, core and quarter a
dozen large juicy apples. Stew among them the yellow peel of a large lemon
grated very fine, and stew them till tender in a very small portion of
water.
- When done, mash them smooth with the back of a spoon (you must have
a pint and a half of the stewed apple); mix a half cup of sugar with them
and set them away till cold.
- Beat six eggs very light
and stir them gradually into a quart of milk alternately with the
stewed apple.
- Put the mixture into cups, or into a deep dish and bake it
about twenty minutes.
- Serve cold, sprinkled with
nutmeg over the top.
