  2. Butter a medium sized (10″) ovenproof dish and place the cooked apples evenly in the bottom of it.
  3. Beat the butter and sugar together then add the beaten eggs.
  4. Sieve in the flour and the baking powder and mix together, before pouring evenly over the apples.
  5. Cook at 180C for 20 minutes, check to see if the sponge is cooked by inserting a clean skewer and seeing if it comes out clean, then cook longer if required.
  6. Remove the puddings from the oven and sprinkle over a little more caster sugar while they are still hot.
  7. Serve with fresh custard or lashings of double cream.
