Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Cook the apples and mash them into a puree with the butter and milk.

  3. Crack an egg into each nest. ≈ 3 min
  4. Grease a heat-resistant dish, sprinkle it with flour or breadcrumbs, and spread the puree evenly over the surface. ≈ 3 min
  5. Place the nests side-by-side on the mashed potatoes and sprinkle with grated cheese. ≈ 2 min
  6. Place in the oven for 6 to 7 minutes just before serving.
