3. Arrange the sugared apple slices on top of the rusks.
4. Whisk together the 3 egg yolks, 500 ml milk, 1 tablespoon honey, and salt until smooth. Pour the custard over the apples and rusks.
5. Bake at 170°C (338°F) using top and bottom heat for 25-30 minutes until the custard is set.
6. While baking, beat the egg white with honey until stiff peaks form. Add a little extra sugar if you prefer a sweeter topping.
7. Remove the hot casserole from the oven and spread the meringue evenly over the surface.
8. Return to the oven and bake at 170°C (338°F) for about 20 minutes until the meringue is golden brown and crispy.
