Procure sweet mellow apples, pare and grate them. To a pint of the
grated pulp put a pint of milk, a couple of eggs, two table-spoonsful of
melted butter, the grated peel of a lemon, and half a wine glass of
brandy. Sweeten it to the taste with nice brown sugar. The eggs should
be beaten to a froth, then the sugar stirred into them, and mixed with
the rest of the ingredients. A little stewed pumpkin, mixed with the
apples, improves the pie. Bake the pie in deep plates, without an upper
crust.
