Ingredients
- 3 medium apples cubed
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 oz Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tbsp butter for greasing
- 1 tbsp sugar for sprinkling the pan
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with butter and dust with sugar.
- Peel, core and cube the apples. Set them aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs with sugar first. Add flour and continue to whisk until a smooth batter forms.
- Add cinnamon, Grand Marnier and gradually whisk in the milk until you have a slightly thin batter.
- Evenly spread the cubed apples in the prepared baking dish. Pour the batter over the apples making sure they are evenly covered.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the flaugnarde is puffed up and golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
