Bipsy Apple Teddy-er.. Tipsy Apple Betty,Here is a nice fall apple recipe. I live in Florida, so I really don’t know what a season is.. but I have to go with the majority who claim this is fall. The Tipsy Apple Betty got it’s origin from the fact that I have a bottle of Amaretto sitting around and I don’t drink the stuff, so I’ve tried to add it to recipes I’ve made just to use it up. The Amaretto Corn Beef Hash was a disaster, but this recipe is fabulous! The topping creats a struesal cover for the tender appples, soaking up a nice cocktail of Amaretto and orange juice. The recipe is just as good without the liqueur, so if you don’t have a 6 year old bottle hanging around…don’t worry!,Oh Yummm! I made a couple of (to me) minor changes is using Frangelico in place of the Amaretto because I had the Frangelico and adding some chopped hazelnuts on top of the apples. I added the nuts to tie in the liqueur and used 3/4 cup of Splenda for the sugar. The orange juice blended beautifully. The apple slices baked perfectly in the given time, holding their shape and not going mushy while being very tender and delicious. The crust/topping shared center stage with the apples. It colored ever so lightly but had that wonderful almost melty tender quality while being crisp. The topping held together in cutting (I had to break a piece off with my fingers to get any kind of shot of what lay beneath it for the pic). Really an outstanding recipe that I’ll be making again and again. Made for Photo Forum’s “An Apple A Day” event.
