APPLE CHARLOTTE

This recipe is from an old dessert cookbooklet I found in my late mother's collection of recipes.

5 thin slices white bread
1/2 cup butter, melted
6 apples, pared, cored, quartered
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Line a 1 1/2-qt. deep mold with bread slices dipped in butter.  Cook apples in small amount of butter in a skillet until tender.  Toss with remaining ingredients; turn into bread-lined mold.  Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until crust is golden.  Cool; unmold.  Serve with whipped cream.  Serves 8.
