Gingersnap Apple Dessert

A quick dessert as a break from all that holiday cooking!

1/2 tablespoon soft butter
1 1/2 cups gingersnap crumbs
3 cups warm applesauce
1/3 cup soft brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 egg whites, beaten to peaks
1/4 cup granulated sugar

Oven: 325 degrees

Rub a 1 1/2-quart casserole with the butter. Sprinkle with half the crumbs. Combine applesauce, brown sugar and spice and spread half the mixture over the crumbs in the casserole. Repeat the layers. In a bowl, beat the egg whites to peaks, then gradually add the granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Pile meringue over the top of the casserole. Bake about fifteen minutes or until meringue is a delicate brown. Serve warm. Serves six.
