Number Of Ingredients 14

Bread Crumbs
4 Large slices white sandwich bread (about 4 oz), each slice torn into quarters
2 Tablespoons packed light brown sugar
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces
Apples
1/4 Cup light brown sugar (1 3/4 ounces)
1/4 Teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch table salt
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 Pounds Granny Smith apples (about 3 medium), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 4 cups)
1 1/2 Pounds Golden Delicious apples (about 3 medium), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 4 cups)
1 1/4 Cups apple cider
1 - 3 Teaspoons lemon juice from 1 lemon (see note)

Steps:

  • 1. For the bread crumbs: Pulse the bread, sugar, and butter in a food processor until coarsely ground, about four 1-second pulses. Transfer the crumbs to a 12-in skillet; toast over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the crumbs are deep golden brown, 8 to 10 min. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; wipe out the skillet. 2. For the apples: Combine the sugar, spices, and salt in a small bowl. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter in the now-empty skillet over high heat; when the foaming subsides, stir in 4 cups of the apples and half of the sugar mixture. Distribute the apples in an even layer and cook, stirring two or three times, until medium brown, about 5 minutes; transfer to a medium bowl. Repeat with the remaining butter, apples, and sugar mixture, returning the first batch of apples to the skillet when second batch is done. 3. Add the apple cider and scrape the bottom and sides of the skillet with a wooden spoon to loosen the browned bits; cook until the apples are tender but not mushy and the liquid has reduced and is just beginning to thicken, 2 to 4 minutes. 4. Remove the skillet from the heat; stir in the lemon juice, if using, and 1/3 cup of the toasted bread crumbs. Using a wooden spoon, lightly flatten the apples into an even layer in the skillet and evenly sprinkle with the remaining toasted bread crumbs. Spoon the warm betty into individual bowls and serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.
