Winter Bird Pudding Bird Food Recipes

Steps:

• Grease a spring-form pan and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Arrange apples in prepared pan and fill centers with bits of butter and about a teaspoon of sugar for each apple; add nuts, raisins, or jelly if desired.
• Beat egg whites stiff, set to the side.
• Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored; add sugar and beat well.
• Sift flour and add to batter alternatively with water.
• Fold egg whites into batter; add salt and vanilla.
• Pour over apples and bake for an hour or until golden and apples are tender.

Steps:

• Butter a baking dish (2-quart). Peel and core the apples and place them in the dish. Fill the wholes with brown sugar, pressing slightly, and sprinkle half the nutmeg on top. Place in preheated 350 ° F oven to start baking while you prepare the batter.
• Separate the eggs, putting the yolks into a larger bowl and the whites onto a platter. Beat whites with a fork or whisk until they no longer slip from the tilted platter. Beat the yolks until they change color; stir in maple flavoring and milk. In smaller bowl mix flour, cream or tartar, baking powder, salt, and any remaining brown sugar. Stir this mixture quickly into the liquid. Fold the egg whites into this thin batter.
• Pour the batter evenly over and around the partly cooked apples and return dish to the oven, baking it until the crust has browned, another 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• While the pudding bakes, stir the powdered sugar and remaining nutmeg into a pitcher of heavy cream. Take the finished pudding directly to the table before it falls, and turn each serving onto a plate so the apple is nested in the fluffy crust. Pour sweetened cream over them.
