Ingredients

Scale
  • 375 g cooking apples (such as Bramleys)
  • 375 g eating apples (such as russets)
  • 90 g butter (divided)
  • 60 g caster sugar (plus extra for topping)
  • Grated rind of 1 lemon
  • 45 g plain flour
  • 500 ml whole milk
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1½ teaspoons vanilla bean paste or extract
  • 60 g demerara sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Peel, core, and chop both types of apples into small pieces.
  2. In a saucepan, melt 45 g of butter over medium heat. Add chopped apples, caster sugar, and lemon rind; cook until softened (about 5–7 minutes). Transfer to a baking dish.
  3. In another saucepan, melt the remaining butter over low heat. Stir in flour to create a roux, then gradually whisk in milk until smooth and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in egg yolks and vanilla.
  4. Pour the custard mixture over the cooked apples in the baking dish. Mix demerara sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle on top. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown.
