Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a shallow 8 in square pan with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle lightly with enough breadcrumbs to coat the surface. Reserve the remaining breadcrumbs. Pour over the cookie crumbs. Grate 1 teaspoon of lemon peel and
squeeze 1 tablespoon of the juice. Set aside. In small dish, combine the lemon peel, sugar and cinnamon. Peel and core the apples, then cut into slices. In the pan, layer 1/3 of the apples and 1/3 of the breadcrumbs, and 1/3 of sugar mixture. Dot with 1/3 of the margarine. Repeat for 2 more layers. Sprinkle the last layer with the reserved lemon juice. Bake until apples are tender. 35 to 45 minutes. Cut into 8 equal pieces.
