Ingredients

Apple Compote:

2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cubed

50g caster sugar

50g butter (I use 25g, and it works fine...)

10g fresh ginger cut into matchsticks

1 tbs water

Egg mixture:

3 eggs

160ml double cream

50g almond meal

100g caster sugar

icing sugar

To serve:

creme fraiche

icing sugar

roasted pistachios

Directions

Place cubed apples in heavy bottomed saucepan with other ingredients listed in the compote section

Cook gently, covered, until apples are soft but not falling apart- add more water if needed, a little at a time

In stainless steel bowl, mix eggs, cream, almond meal, caster sugar

Take 4 buttered china cups (or buttered muffin tins or dariole moulds) and place 1 /4 apple compote in each

Top with enough egg mixture to come to about 2 cm below the rim of the cup

Sprinkle each with icing sugar and bake in 170degC oven for 30 mins

Invert and remove from cups carefully, and serve with creme fraiche and roasted pistachios

Yes- almond meal is the same as ground almonds. The term just means that the almonds are **REALLY** finely ground...
