1 cup bread-crumbs.
2 cups chopped apples—tart.
½ cup sugar.
1 teaspoonful cinnamon.
2 tablespoonfuls butter cut into small bits.
Butter a deep dish, and put a layer of the chopped apple at the bottom;
sprinkle with sugar, a few bits of butter, and cinnamon; cover with
bread-crumbs; then more apple. Proceed in this order until the dish
is full, having a layer of crumbs at top. Cover closely, and steam
three-quarters of an hour in a moderate oven; then uncover and brown
quickly.
Eat warm with sugar and cream, or sweet sauce.
This is a homely but very good pudding, especially for the children’s
table. Serve in the dish in which it is baked.
