Apple Brown Betty

APPLE BROWN BETTY (this was a recipe my momma used. Not sure where she got it from but it is delicious. A few alterations to meet my diabetic needs now.

2 c. bread crumbs (I mix some apple pie spice seasoning in with the bread crumbs about 1/2 t.)
1/4 c. butter, melted
3/4 c. splenda brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. vanilla
3 apples, chopped (about 2 cups)

For crumb mixture, mix bread crumbs and melted butter; set aside. For sugar mixture, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla; set aside. For apple mixture, mix chopped apples; set aside. Assembly: Place in a pam sprayed baking dish a layer of apples, bread crumbs and half of sugar. Repeat Top that with sugar mixture. Repeat layers ending with crumbs on top. and sprinkle cinnamon on top. Add 1/4 cup hot water, cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove cover and brown. Serve with whipped cream or french vanilla ice cream. This never fails to be a pleaser of my two boys. Now adults. Also excellent with other fruit.
