The secret of the brown Betty lies in its simplicity. The apple slices are tossed with sugar and spices and topped with buttery crumbs (in this case made from hot cross buns) for a warm and comforting pud.
Cook’s tip: Apples are traditionally used in this pudding and can be peeled or left with the skin-on depending on preference. You may like to add some sultanas or frozen berries or try it with pears.
