Apple Puddings (alexandra's)

Pare, core, and quarter half a dozen finely-flavoured apples. Place them in a saucepan with a table-spoonful of water, the thin rind of half a lemon chopped small, and two table-spoonfuls of sugar. Simmer gently until reduced to a pulp; then stir in, while hot, a piece of butter the size of an egg, and when cold add two eggs well beaten, a breakfast-cupful of finely-grated bread-crumbs, half a cupful of milk or cream, and a little grated nutmeg. Mix thoroughly, then pour into little cups previously oiled, and bake for twenty minutes in a moderate oven. Turn them out, and serve with sifted sugar. Probable cost, 10d.
