Birds' Nest Pudding image

Does anyone remember this? My mother made this when I was young. I almost forgot about these. She made them with the apples that grew from the wild apple trees that were around the farm area.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 tart green apples, peeled and cored
1 c brown sugar
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
3 egg whites
3 egg yolks
1 c milk
1 tsp maple flavored extract
1 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c confectioners' sugar
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 pt heavy cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 2 quart baking dish.
  • 2. Place apples in prepared dish. Stuff the core of each apple with brown sugar, pressing down slightly. Reserve any remaining sugar. Sprinkle all the apples with the 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. (This is important to do - Place dish in preheated oven to start baking while the batter is prepared.)
  • 3. Beat egg whites until stiff. In a separate bowl, beat yolks until they change color. Stir milk and maple flavoring into beaten yolks. In a third bowl, combine flour, cream of tartar, baking powder, salt and any remaining brown sugar until well mixed. Pour flour mixture all at once into egg yolk mixture and stir until smooth. Fold beaten egg whites into yolk batter.
  • 4. Remove apples from oven and pour batter evenly over and around apples. Bake in preheated oven 45 to 60 minutes more, until crust has browned. Turn each apple, surrounded by some fluffy crust onto a plate and serve at once with sweetened cream.
  • 5. To make sweetened cream: Stir confectioners' sugar and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg into heavy cream.
