    This is SO good! I've even made it the night before, refrigerated it and then baked it in the morning to serve with breakfast... it's delicious!

    My great Aunt used to make Apple Brown Betty and out of nowhere I was craving it yesterday so I made this. It was really easy and tasty, perfect for a chilly fall evening. The walnuts added good flavor and crunch, and when I make it again I will use more. I think some cranberries would add a little depth. Also, I wonder if Granny Smiths wouldn't be better. But good and very easy, especially topped with some nice vanilla ice cream.

    What a great idea to use graham cracker crumbs instead of breadcrumbs! Or maybe 1/2 and 1/2? I didn't think I would like this recipe until I read that suggestion, thanks!

    Great recipe! Just made it this fall with all the apples now on sale. Made it exactly as the recipe says except I used local grown apples instead of the Golden Delicious. Turned out great.

    Meh, it's just okay. My husband and I much preferred Ellie's Rustic Pear Tart, which you can also find on this website.

    This tastes like cooked apples with bread crumbs on top. 1 tablespoon of butter is insufficient for the topping. The cooked apples taste fine but this topping ruins it. Sometimes you can't cut corners to cut fat and calories. This is an example of that. Was glad my guests brought a dessert to share so I could throw this away. I told everyone not to eat it!

    I can apple pie filling in the fall so I used that and substituted graham cracker crumbs for bread crumbs and added pecans instead of walnuts because that's what I had .really good I think that store bought apple pie filing would work also just make sure there is enough spices in it. Loved the recipe thanks

    Great recipe, very easy and very tasty, also the fact that it is healthier than the regular brown betty recipe is a good thought for those of us that have to watch sugars and carbs......I had lots of apples and also substituted the cider for apple juice and it turned out really good, the topping is nice over and very crunchy and not super sweet but very good......I will definitely make it over and over......
