Apple Brown Betty
4 c hearty bread, cut into half inch cubes or torn into small pieces
3 large apples, chopped, skin on (I used Golden Delicious, but Granny Smith, Gala, McIntosh would also work well.)
2/3 – 1 cup brown sugar
Cinnamon
¼ – ½ c butter
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9 inch pie plate with non-stick spray. Layer 1/3 c brown sugar, half of the apples and half of the bread cubes in the pie plate, repeat. Sprinkle cinnamon over the top of the last layer of bread crumbs to your taste. I really like cinnamon, I used 1 ½ teaspoons. Dot with thin slices of butter. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake another 15 minutes. Enjoy!
