Fruit casserole suitable as a main course or dessert

Wash, core, eighth, and slice the apples. Sprinkle with sugar and drizzle with a little lemon juice. Butter a baking dish well and line the bottom with rusks. Place the sugared fruit on top. Whisk the egg yolks, honey, salt, and milk well and pour over the mixture. Bake the casserole in a preheated oven at 170°C (top/bottom heat) for 25-30 minutes. Beat the egg whites with the honey or raspberry jam until stiff. (If you like it very sweet, you can add more sugar). Spread the meringue mixture on top and bake the casserole for another 20 minutes.
