A recipe for a brown betty, a dessert similar to a crumble, has been published. This particular version incorporates stale bread to form its topping and features seasonal apples and blackberries.
The recipe suggests using maple syrup, brown sugar, or an alternative sweetener. It also notes that while apples and blackberries were used, any combination of fruit can be substituted.
The brown betty is described as being easier to make than a crumble and is presented as a way to reduce food waste by utilising stale bread crusts.
