Make Apple Brown Betty with our step-by-step instructions.
Directions
Tear bread into 1/4 inch cubes and allow them to dry completely before using. Let them air
dry overnight or place them in a 225°F oven until they are completely dry. Stir occasionally and
do not allow cubes to brown. French or Italian bread are good breads to use.
Butter the bottom of a 2 quart baking dish or equivalent size bakeware.
Melt the 3/4 c. of butter in a skillet and add the dried cubes in after the butter is hot.
Toss the bread cubes in the melted butter and cook over medium low heat until the cubes are lightly
browned.
Remove the cubes from the skillet and allow them to cool completely.
Place 1/3 of browned bread cubes in the bottom of the buttered baking dish.
In a bowl, mix the sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon rind, and lemon juice together
to distribute ingredients evenly.
Pour 1/2 of the apple mixture over the layer of bread cubes in the baking dish.
Repeat with a layer of 1/2 of the remaining bread cubes over the apple mixture.
Then layer the remaining half of the apple mixture over that layer of bread.
Add the remaining bread cubes as the top layer. Add the hot water to the dish. Cover tightly
