Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the diced apples with 50 grams of granulated sugar and the ground cinnamon. Toss well to coat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining granulated sugar (100 grams), melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, and spread it out evenly. Gently scatter the cinnamon-sugar-coated apples over the top of the batter, pressing them slightly into the mixture.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and optional ground nutmeg evenly over the apples to create a caramelized topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the pudding is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. You can serve it warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of custard.
