Mother’s Surprise.
Take half a square loaf of baker’s bread, cut into thin slices, crust and all, and butter them; peel, core and cut up sufficient quantity of good baking apples to be in proportion. Take a pie dish, line it with bread and butter; put a layer of the apples at the bottom, then of sugar, thenxif bread, and so on until the dish is filled. Bake until the apples are perfectly soft; turn out in a dish and serve. It should keep its shape and taste almost like a sweetmeat, all the ingredients being thoroughly blended in baking. .
