6 slices of white bread
1 Tblsp butter
4 apples
4 Tblsp sugar
2 cups milk

Peel,core and slice the apples. Cut up the bread into thin finger length slices. Butter a deep oven dish. Put in a layer of bread sticks arranged in a criss-cross fashion, then cover with a layer of apple slices. Sprinkle with currants, sultanas, sugar, and cinnamon. Then add another layer of criss-crossed bread sticks, another layer of apples, then the sprinkling of currants, sultanas, sugar and cinnamon. Continue these layers, in the same order, until the dish is full. Put the dish in a (MODERATE) oven for 10 minutes. In the meantime, beat up the egg yolks, add the milk to them, and beat all well together. Remove the pudding from the oven, pour the milk and egg mixture over it, and return it to the oven to bake until the egg and milk mixture is set and the top of the pudding is a golden brown.
