Apple Cinnamon French Toast
Serves 8

2 tbsp. corn syrup
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 loaf unsliced French bread
6 eggs
2 cups whole milk
1 t vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 large cooking apple

Place syrup, butter, and brown sugar in a saucepan. Simmer until syrup-like consistency.

Trim crust off bread loaf and cut remaining loaf into thick slices.

Mix eggs, milk, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Pour syrup mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 deep pan. Peel and thinly slice the apple and put slices on the syrup mixture in the bottom of the pan.

Lay the slices of bread on top of the apples. Pour the egg mixture over the slices, cover and refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour. Cut into squares and invert to serve. Serve with syrup, however the slices will be sweet enough for most tastes.
