Melt in your mouth apple goodness. Serve With Vanilla Ice Cream and watch people bury their face in the bowl til' its gone.
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 1/2 lbs granny smith apples, peeled, cored, quartered, and sliced about 1/4-inch thick
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/4 cups stale plain cake crumbs or 1 1/4 cups plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch ground cloves
1 pinch salt
1/3 cup apple cider
vanilla ice cream, for serving
Directions:
1. Using 1 tablespoon of the butter, liberally coat a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl combine the apples and lemon juice and toss to combine.
3. In a small bowl combine the cake crumbs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, cloves and salt and toss to thoroughly combine.
4. Scatter 3 tablespoons of the crumb mixture onto the bottom of the baking dish and top with half of the apples. Drizzle the apple cider over the apples then top with about half of the remaining crumb mixture. Dot with half of the remaining butter. Repeat with the remaining fruit, crumbs, and butter.
5. Bake until the apples are bubbly and tender and the crumbs are nicely browned, 45 to 50 minutes.
6. Cool briefly on a wire cooling rack before serving warm, with scoops of ice cream on top.
