Eight Bramley apples
100g brown sugar
100g unsalted butter
Large pinch each of cinnamon & nutmeg
Pinch of salt
4 eggs
500ml milk (approx)
Water
Cream together the butter, sugar and spices. Add this mixture to the centre of the cored and peeled apples. Place in a non-stick baking dish just large enough to hold the apples snugly. Add a few spoons of water to the flour and salt to form a thick paste, then mix in the eggs. Add the milk until a thick batter is reached. Pour over the apples and bake at gas mark 5/190°C for an hour.
