Friar’s Omelet

Apples
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
Juice of half a lemon
Bread crumbs

Steam several sour apples. Mash them and then drain them until quite dry. Take one pint of this pulp, and when cool add to it the three well-beaten yolks, the sugar, lemon juice, and the whites beaten to a stiff froth. Brown some very fine bread crumbs in a little butter. Sprinkle the bottom and sides of a well-buttered pudding dish with them. Pour in the mixture. Cover with bread crumbs. Bake twenty minutes. Serve with brown sugar and cream.
