Baked Apple French Toast - Eggy Bread #1



This week will be about 2 french toasts and 1 bread pudding.

So, anyone of you with a loaf of sandwich bread but don't know what to do with it, maybe you can try out this week's recipes to clear stock.



I made this for lunch with my girls. Lydia and I  walloped this up. Lyanne as usual, just gave a sniff and walked away. She doesn't eat bakes with fruit pieces, except fresh fruit pieces in cream filled cakes.

I used to hate cinnamon, but now am madly in love with it.


Baked Apple French Toast

8 slices of white sandwich bread (Gardenia, High 5 or Massimo)
2 medium sized green apples
50gm soft brown gugar

50ml milk
½ tsp vanilla extract
Butter for greasing pan

2. Preheat oven to 180(fan)/200C. Butter an 8 inch square baking dish.

5. Dip 4 slices of bread in the egg mixture(both sides) and arrange them to cover base of pan. Squish them to fit if needed. Use quick swift moves to dip the bread. Do not soak the bread

7. Dip the other four pieces of bread in the egg mixture and arrange them on top the apples.
8. Pour balance of egg mixture (if there still is) over the bread. Tilt dish to distribute well.
9. Arrange balance of apples on top of bread.(If lazy just toss them in) and sprinkle balance of cinnamon sugar over the apples.
10. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until puffy golden brown.
11. Let the French toast rest for 30 minutes in pan before serving (10-15 mins if you’re from a colder climate)

Crispy sugary top.... fragrant    with cinnamon and apples....
