Ingredients
- 3 sweet apples
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 tbsp semolina
- Sweetener to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Peel the apples, chop, and blend into a puree.
- Beat the egg until pale; add the apple puree and semolina; beat 10 more seconds.
- Divide among molds; bake at 180C (350F) for 30 minutes.
- Cool completely, unmold, decorate, and serve.
Tips
- Choose naturally sweet apples so you can skip the sweetener entirely — Fuji or Gala work beautifully.
- Cool the dessert completely before unmolding; it firms up as it cools and releases cleanly.
- Dust with cinnamon or top with fresh berries just before serving for extra flavor and color.
