method
1. Peel, core, and chop the apples coarsely.
2. Mix together the apples, suet, breadcrumbs, sugar, nutmeg, and salt.
3. Beat the eggs until liquid and stir into the dry ingredients with enough milk to make a soft dropping consistency.
4. Leave to stand for 1 hour to allow the bread to soak. If very stiff, add a little more milk.
5. Put the mixture into a greased 1 litre basin, cover with greased paper or foil and steam for 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
6. Serve from the basin, or leave for 5-10 minutes at room temperature to firm up, then turn out.
