Apple Brown Betty

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish using baking spray (or can use butter or shortening as well).

Step 2

Toss the apple slices in the lemon juice and layer half of them in the baking dish.

Step 3

In a food processor or blender, combine your flour, sugars, and spices. Pulse several times to mix well. Drop in butter 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing in between each addition until all the butter is fully incorporated and coarse crumbs form.

Step 4

Spread half of the crumbs over the apples in the baking dish and layer the second half of the apples over the top. Coat the apples with the second half of the crumbs.

Step 5

Bake the Betty for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crumbs are crisp and golden brown.

Step 6

Cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream over the top.
