Ingredients 2 ingredients

  1. Sugar
  2. twelve apples

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.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. Boil twelve apples till soft;
  2. core and peel them, break them up, and pulp through a sieve;
  3. put sugar to taste, and mix them with twice its weight of dough, and bake them in a very slow oven.
  4. This receipt was given to the Hermit by the venerable Mrs.
  5. Faulkener, of Tenby, South Wales, aged ninety-three, for many years landlady of the principal hotel there (hen the White Lion).
