APPLE BROWN BETTY

INGREDIENTS:
11 medium sized apples
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter

Syrup:
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup hot water
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Directions:
Peel, core and slice apples in eighths. Spread them over the bottom of a lightly greased 9 x 12 inch baking pan. Sprinkle cinnamon over the apples. To make topping, mix the flour and 3/4 cup brown sugar together, cut in the butter until crumbly. Set aside. Syrup: Mix 2/3 cup brown sugar with the hot water and lemon juice. Pour half of the syrup over the apples. Sprinkle the topping mixture evenly over top. Pour the remaining syrup over the topping. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes.

Of course the original recipe that I have says to serve warm with Vanilla Ice Cream... I try not to keep icecream in the house... even if I try it doesn't stay long anyhow ;-) .... And being the only one who lives here, I know who is eating it.
