Everyone always raves about this pie. You don't have to make pie crust! You can control the sweetness by the amount of streusel topping you use.

CINNAMON-APPLE BROWN BETTY
If I had to define the "Betty" of Apple Brown Betty, she'd be a smart and thrifty Southern gal with a knack for creating simple, soul-comforting desserts. In this sweet dish, spiced apples are slow-cooked between layers of cinnamon-raisin bread cubes for a wonderful twist on the traditional oven-baked classic. -Heather Demeritte, Scottsdale, Arizona

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that hold their shape when cooked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
- Use fresh, unpeeled apples: The peel adds flavor and texture to the dish.
- Don't overcook the rice: It should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the rice from burning.
- Let the rice cool slightly before serving: This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
