Evelyn Kennell of Roanoke, Illinois sends the recipe for Ample Brown Betty. It's great for using leftover bread. Ingredients:
2 loaves (20 ounces each) white bread with crusts, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 32 cups) |
2 cups butter, melted |
40 cups (about 12 pounds) sliced peeled apples |
3 cups packed brown sugar, divided |
2 cups sugar |
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
4 cups water |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Toss bread cubes with butter; divide half of the cubes among four greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pans. Arrange apples over bread, using 10 cups per pan. Mix 2 cups of brown sugar, sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon; divide into fourths and sprinkle over the apples. Mix water and lemon juice; pour a fourth into each pan. Top with remaining bread cubes. Sprinkle remaining brown sugar equally over pans. Cover and bake at 375° for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 25-30 minutes longer. Yield: 50-60 servings.
