Recipe Summary Baked Apple French Toast Casserole

The biggest challenge you will have with this recipe is that there is usually never enough. It makes an 11x7-inch pan, and is easily devoured by me and my wife and son. Quick, easy, and oh-so delicious. Top with maple syrup and powdered sugar to your liking.

Ingredients | French Apple Cake Once Upon A Chef

cooking spray

4 eggs, beaten

½ cup half-and-half

½ cup milk

1 tablespoon white sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 (8 ounce) loaf French bread, cut into small cubes

¼ cup butter

3 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and cut into small dice

¼ cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 7x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Beat eggs, half-and-half, milk, white sugar, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl; add bread cubes and stir to coat. Let soak until bread is moist, at least 10 minutes.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir apples and brown sugar into the melted butter to moisten the sugar completely; add cinnamon and cook, stirring regularly, until the apples are warmed yet still firm, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir apple mixture into the bread mixture; pour into the prepared baking dish.

Bake in preheated oven until golden on top and still somewhat soft in the center, 35 to 45 minutes.
