Apple Brown Betty

6 - 7 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced (6 - 7 cups)
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 tsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In large bowl, stir together the apples, 1/2 cup white sugar, lemon juice and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon. Mix thoroughly. Spread the mixture into a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and butter. Add the brown sugar, the 2 tablespoons white sugar, and the 1/4 tsp. cinnamon -- stir until combined. Crumble this mixture over the apple mixture.

Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until the top is browned and the apples are tender.

This recipe is from one of my all-time favorite cookbooks -- Better Homes & Gardens, America's Best-Loved Community Recipes.
