   In a 1 or 2-quart stainless-steel saucepan, whisk the egg, cornstarch, salt and vanilla together for 2 minutes.

   Set aside.

   Melt the butter in another saucepan.

4. 4

   Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon.

5. 5

   Cook over low heat until the butter and sugar blend together.

6. 6

   Add the milk and heat until the sugar dissolves. (The sugar will get hard when the milk is added; it will melt again as the milk heats.) Whisk a few tablespoons of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture.

   Gradually whisk in the rest of the milk mixture. Over medium heat, whisk the combined mixture constantly until it comes to a boil.

8. 8

   Immediately remove from the heat.

9. 9

   Pour into a bowl. (If you don't want a skin to form on the top of the pudding, sprinkle it lightly with granulated sugar.) Refrigerate.

    Cover with plastic wrap when cool.

11. 11

    Place 1 sliced apple into each of 8 serving bowls.
