I tried this for Christmas brunch. I added 1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice to the apples and casserole and used the apples I had around. I wish I would have added much more cornstarch to the apple mix, The finished product smelled and tasted heavenly, but was soggy, more like a wet bread pudding.
Oh no. I;m sorry to hear that. If you make it again more cornstarch or cooking a bit longer will thicken it up for you.
Do you think it would work to make the apple filling in advance and refrigerate a day or two before assembling the dish?
I would think that would work fine. I haven’t tried it though.
I’ve baked this for 45 minutes already and it still looks exactly the same. It’s too wet and ggooe to take out and serve. I have a lot of disappointed people, work nothing to feed them
Well that is strange. I’m not sure how cornstarch and eggs could bake for 45 minutes and still be thin. Perhaps your apples released more juice.
Curious to know if this has been made ahead of time. Would like to make it for a weekend up north but so much easier to make at home before we go.
Apologies for missing your comment. This can be made ahead, just expect that the longer the liquid soaks into the casserole the more moist it will be.
Hey can this be done without the eggs ?
The eggs act as the binder so I’m not sure how well it would turn out without them.
