This was a magazine clipping in Nana Hazel’s recipe box. The age is uncertain but it’s old, as one can tell by this: “makes 8 servings at $0.25 each.”
Ingredients
½ cup sugar
½ cup molasses
½ cup water
2 Tbl butter, melted
2 Tbl lemon juice
¼ tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1 can (1 ¼ lb) peeled, sliced apples
4 cups diced white bread (8 slices)
1 cup raisins
Directions
Combine first seven ingredients (sugar through nutmeg) in a large bowl. Beat until well blended. Add apples, bread cubes and raisins. Stir to coat well. Divide mixture evenly among eight buttered six-ounce custard cups. Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees) for 35 minutes or until bubbly.
Sauce:
2 eggs yolks
¼ cup sugar
½ tsp flour
dash of salt
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup vanilla ice cream
½ tsp vanilla
Beat egg yolks, sugar, flour and salt until thick and lemon-colored in medium-size saucepan. Stir in cream. Cook slowly, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat; add ice cream and vanilla. Stir until ice cream melts, then cover and chill. Serve over Apple Brown Bette.
