Ingredients 6 ingredients

  1. four cups of raw apples
  2. two cups of bread crumbs
  3. one-half cup of hot water
  4. two teaspoons of butter

  6. one-half cup of honey

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Take four cups of raw apples cut in small pieces, two cups of bread crumbs, one-half cup of hot water, two teaspoons of butter, two teaspoons of cinnamon, one-half cup of honey.
  2. Put a layer of the apple in a well-buttered pudding dish;
  3. then a layer of crumbs.
  4. Mix the honey and hot water.
  5. Pour part of this over the crumbs, sprinkle with cinnamon and dot with a few bits of butter.
  6. Fill the dish with alternate layers of apples, crumbs, honey, etc., having a layer of crumbs on top.
  7. Cover and bake forty-five minutes.
  8. Serve with cream.
