Apple Delight
Apple Delight is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The apples are peeled and diced, then combined with brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, chopped walnuts, and melted butter. The mixture is then spread into a greased 8-inch square baking dish and baked for 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Apple Delight is a recipe that has been passed down through generations. It is believed to have originated in the early 1900s, when apples were a plentiful and affordable fruit. The recipe was originally created as a way to use up leftover apples, but it quickly became a favorite dessert. Apple Delight is often served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, but it can also be served at room temperature.
