I found this recipe in The Pioneer Woman's cookbook, and it is Amazing! It goes quick and is good anytime of the year!

• core and peel apples then slice and dice them
• place half diced bread in buttered baking dish (9 by 11 inch dish)
• sprinkle on half diced apples and half brown sugar
• dot with butter
• repeat layer of remaining bread, apples, and brown sugar
