Here's a recipe that my family likes.
Apple-Cinnamon French Toast
5 tbsp. butter 2 2 1/2 large apples 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar 2 tbsp. dark corn syrup (I use the light) 1 tsp. cinnamon
8 slices Texas Toast (cut off crusts) 3 large eggs 1 cup milk 1 tsp. vanilla
Night before: melt butter, add apples, cook till apples are tender. Add brown sugar, corn syrup, & cinnamon. Cook till brown sugar dissolves. Pour apple mixture in 9x13-inch pan. Spread evenly. Arrange bread in one layer on top of apple mixture.
Beat with fork: eggs, milk & vanilla until well mixed. Pour over bread slices. Cover with plastic wrap (I use metal cake pan lid) and refrigerate overnight.
Next morning: Preheat oven to 375. Bake 45-60 mins. or until mixture is firm and bread is golden brown. Invert onto serving tray & serve immediately.
We use no toppings when eating this French toast. M-M-m Good-wish I had some apples on hand now!! |
