Pare and core six or eight nice tart apples, and put them in a pudding dish. Take a quart of milk, six eggs, and sufficient flour to make a thin batter – pour it over the apples until the dish is nearly full. Bake it until the apples are clear, or you think it is done. Eat it with wine sauce – or, cold sauce made of butter, sugar and nutmeg beat well together.
