Ingredients
| 5 |
slices wheat bread |
| 4 |
tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted |
| 6 |
Gala apples , peeled and cored |
| 2 |
tablespoons lemon juice |
| 1/3 |
cup light brown sugar, packed |
| 1/2 |
teaspoon ground cinnamon |
| 1/4 |
teaspoon ground nutmeg |
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a food processor, pulse bread until coarse crumbs form (you should have about 2 cups). Spread breadcrumbs on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Transfer to a bowl, add butter, and toss until coated.
- Meanwhile, place apples in a large bowl, and toss with lemon juice. Stir in sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and half the breadcrumbs. Transfer mixture to an 8-inch square (or other shallow 2-quart) baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining breadcrumbs. Cover dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake until fruit mixture is bubbling, about 40 minutes. Then remove foil, and continue baking until breadcrumbs have browned and apples are easily pierced with a paring knife, 10 to 15 minutes more. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.
