Finally we are getting some
apples from our formerly barren trees.
We washed, peeled and sliced
a bowl full of the lovely fruit and poured them into a buttered glass baking
dish.
Here is my mother’s favorite
recipe for Apple Betty or as known by some, as Apple Crisp.
Apple Betty
4 to 6 cups sliced apples
3/4 cup quick oats
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup soft butter
Optional: add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (I love the nuts
in this)
Slice the apples into a 10 x
13 baking dish. If they are tart, sprinkle a bit of sugar over the apples. Mix the other ingredients in a separate bowl
and sprinkle over the apples. Bake at
350 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes. Serve
hot or cold. It is also good with some
ice cream.
If you don’t have an apple
tree I do suggest you purchase some nice baking apples and try this delicious
and favorite recipe.
It will become your favorite
method to serve apples.

Pity that I can't *taste* it - but it looks great :)
Man alive that sounds good. I've never had it. I gotta get something to eat!
Will have to try this recipe...especially since it's called "Apple Betty".
