74 An apple tart
A good way to use up some excess egg yolks and everyone loves this dish.
Armstrong’s translation:
Peel the apples and take the cores cleanly out and chop them small, put two or three egg yolks with them and let butter melt in a pan and pour it on the apples and put cinnamon, sugar and ginger thereon and let it bake. Roast them first in butter before you chop them.
Reconstruction:
2 apples, peeled and sliced
2 T butter
2 egg yolks
1/2 t ginger
1/2 t cinnamon
1 T sugar
1T melted butter
Melt 2 T butter in fry pan. When hot, add apples and sauté until apples are soft and can be chopped with a spoon.
In a bowl, mix egg yolks, ginger, cinnamon and sugar.
When apples are soft, place into a greased pan, pour egg yolk mixture over the top and mix. Smooth the top and drizzle 1 T melted butter over the top.
Bake at 350 F for 15-20 minutes.
