Instructions
 

Prepare the French Toast

  • Place the slices of French bread into a lightly greased 9 x 13 baking dish, pressing them tightly together to fit in a single layer in the baking dish.
    1 pound loaf of French Bread, sliced into 10-12 slices, 1 1/2” thick
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla; pour over the bread slices in baking dish.
    6 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups whole milk, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon Vain Foods vanilla extract
  • Arrange the sliced apples on top of the slices of bread in the baking dish. Sprinkle the sugar/cinnamon mixture evenly over the sliced apples.
    5 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced very thin, 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Cover the pan of French Toast with foil and refrigerate 8-10 hours or overnight.

Bake the French Toast

  • In the morning, remove the French toast from the fridge and uncover. Let the casserole rest for 30 minutes at room temperature before you want to bake it.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Bake the French toast, covered, on the center rack of the oven for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown and set at the center and apples are tender. Remove the foil for the last 20 minutes of the baking time.  **French toast is done with a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Prepare the Sauce

  • Meanwhile, in a large saucepan over medium heat, add the butter.
  • When the butter is melted, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, nutmeg, flour, and milk.
    1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup whole milk
  • Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until nicely thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla.
    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (I love Vain Foods pure vanilla extract)
  • Pour the prepared warm sauce over the baked French toast; serve at once.
