Lamartine's Pudding

Stew four large apples in a little water, with a small piece of cinnamon, until they are tender, but unbroken. Take them up, drain them, and beat them with a fork. Let them get cold, then mix with them the yolks of four eggs and the white of one, well beaten, a little pounded sugar, two or three drops of vanilla, two ounces of fresh butter, and three-quarters of a pint of cream or good milk. Line a pie-dish with good puff paste. Pour in the mixture, and bake in a moderate oven. Strew sifted sugar over before serving. Apricots may be substituted for the apples in this recipe. Time to bake, half an hour. Probable cost, when made with milk, 1s. Sufficient for four or five persons.
