Step by step recipe

1	Prepare the cream mixture Mix in a bowl with a whisk: 200 ml liquid cream, 3 egg yolks, 10 g Vanilla sugar and 50 g caster sugar. Set aside.	5 min.
2	Toast the almonds Use a small non-stick frying pan on high heat. Tip in 50 g ground almonds and dry roast lightly, stirring constantly with a wooden spatula or spoon.	5 min.
3	Take off the heat as soon as the almonds begin to colour slightly. This process brings out the full flavour of the almonds.
4	Assemble the gratin Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C). Butter a gratin dish.	1 min.
5	Peel 1 kg 500 g apple and cut into small pieces. Spread half the apple pieces in the dish.	7 min.
6	Scatter the toasted almonds over the top.	2 min.
7	Add the rest of the apples and pour the cream mixture over.	2 min.
8	Scatter a little caster sugar on top and add slivers of butter to help the top brown.	3 min.
9	Cooking and serving Cook in the oven for 40 minutes. Serve either warm or cold, on its own or, if you can't resist good things, with a little whipped cream.	40 min.

Remarks

If you wish, you can add a tablespoonful of Calvados to the cream mixture.
