DECADENT APPLE BROWN BETTY
A favourite dessert of many. This makes good use of stale bread. Who knew that with such simple ingredients as bread, apples, butter, sugar.....you could make something so delicious and magnificent! It's magic! When rhubarb replaces the apples, it is known as Blushing Betty! Another example of North American Colonial thrift!
