Cinnamon-Apple Brown Betty image

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

This was the worst Brown Betty I've ever had. It was bland and tasteless.

This recipe was a disaster! The apples were mushy and the topping was burnt.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Brown Betty didn't turn out as expected. The apples were still hard and the topping was too soft.
