APPLE AND ONION BAKE / 2 ways

INGREDIENTS:

Pam to spray baking dish
1 1/2 lbs firm not-too tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Golden Delicious or Fuji
1 large onion, sliced 3/8 inch thick and separated into rings (3/4 to 1 lb)
3/4 cup (packed) dark brown sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups coarse bread crumbs, preferably homemade
2 Tbsp butter, cut into small pieces (Earth Balance)


DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Arrange the apple slices in an overlapping layer in the baking pan.  Top with a layer of the onion rings.  Sprinkle the brown sugar and salt over the rings and top with the bread crumbs and bits of the butter.  Cover with foil and place in the oven. 

Bake for 3 hours, remove the foil, and continue baking for 30 minutes more, or until the juices are evaporated and the breadcrumb topping is browned.  Cool slightly, then serve while still hot.

This is a great holiday side-dish.


the day after with the addition of blueberries, a good breakfast /
would be a great addition to pancakes
