Ingredients

  • 6 medium-size cooking apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 5 eggs, separated
  • 1 cup milk
  • 5 slices white bread, cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped almonds (optional)
  • 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1
    Place apples in a large Dutch oven with water to cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until apples are tender. Drain. Mash apples until pulpy. Cool slightly. Add butter, 1/2 cups sugar, egg yolks, milk, bread cubes, lemon rind, juice, and nutmeg in a large mixing bowl; stir well. Stir in almonds, if desired. Spoon mixture into a greased 2-quart casserole. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until firm. Remove from oven, and set aside.
  2. 2
    Beat egg whites (at room temperature) until foamy. Gradually add 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time; beat until stiff peaks form. Fold in vanilla. Spread meringue over top of pudding. Return to oven, and bake an additional 10 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned.
  3. 3
    Spoon into individual serving bowls. Serve hot or cold.
