I followed the recipe exactly, except I used Sara Lee cinnamon raisin bread and cubed them and tossed them in the egg mixture instead of pouring it on top. I think the flavor was good, I'm not sure if I didn't cook it long enough but the bread was kinda soggy and there was alot of liquid still in the bottom with the apples. If I tried this again I would probably not pour the excess liquid in the casserole after tossing the bread in the egg mixture. It cam out too wet. But over all I love the idea and the flavor.

I don't know if I did something wrong but they came out very dry and hard. When mixing the batter it was very dry... I don't see how you could drop a spoonful into the oil. I had to form them by rolling them up.

This batter came out great.... I added 1/2 cup extra flour because I was frying a lot of fish... and it was too thick with only 1 bottle of beer... so I actually added almost a whole other bottle. People who said the batter was too runny... I think it is supposed to be runny... I fried some fish at different consistencies as I added more beer and thinned it... the fish fried with the thinner batter came out better. Also I did not think the spice was too much at all... I added extra flour so I also added extra spice so it would be proportional to the original recipe. The only thing I did change was the amount of salt because I would have hated for this to come out too salty, based on other reviews. Other than the salt... I think this is exactly what I was looking for and will definitely use again.
