LIKE MOST women of her generation, my husband's grandmother was a no-measure cook . This recipe of hers suffered as it was handed down, so I made an effort to work out the kinks. Finally, my husband pronounced the results as good as he remembered, and we declared it the official recipe. -Joan Kasura, Silver Spring, Maryland Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups uncooked brown rice |
4 tablespoons butter, divided |
2-1/2 cups chunky applesauce |
1 cup diced peeled apples |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1-3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided |
dash salt |
Directions:
1. Cook rice according to package directions. Stir 2 tablespoons butter into hot rice. Add applesauce, apples, brown sugar, 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon and salt. Spoon into a greased deep 2-qt. baking dish. Dot with remaining butter; sprinkle with remaining cinnamon. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35 minutes or until heated through. Serve warm or cold.
