Before you start: The egg is separated but only the white ever gets used. The yolk is almost certainly meant to go into the sour cream mixture that gets poured over the apples.

Where this one came from

Nobody's written this one down yet.

Ingredients

  • 1 (1-pound) loaf frozen white bread dough
  • 1 egg, separated
  • 6-7 apples
  • 1 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup syrup
  • 2 teaspoons butter

Directions

  1. The night before, remove the bread dough from the freezer and let it thaw well wrapped in the refrigerator.
  2. In the morning, slice the bread dough crosswise into 12 equal slices. Place the slices side by side in a lightly greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
  3. Brush them with lightly beaten egg white and let rise until doubled in size.
  4. Peel the apples and slice them thin. Cover the entire surface of the bread dough with overlapping rows of apple slices.
  5. Mix sugar and cinnamon well, and sprinkle the mixture over the apples.
  6. Mix egg white with cream and pour over apples.
  7. Pour syrup over all and dot with butter.
  8. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
