Make it low carb as well!

Baked French Toast with Apples

French Toast is my favorite breakfast! It’s also my favorite food translation into French: pain perdu or lost bread. I just love the idea of bread that has lost its way and fallen into naughty behaviors like a mounds of milk, eggs, sugar and cinnamon. And just think if you used pumpkin or cinnamon bread in this recipe—delish!

Baking French Toast makes the whole process a lot easier, and creates a creamy, bread-pudding-style French Toast, which just makes it more delicious, in my humble, lost-girl opinion. This version uses baked apples, but you can use any kind of fruit pie filling recipe for this. Or make your own with this recipe for simple baked apples.

Baked Whole-Wheat French Toast with Apples

Ingredients:

  • homemade pie filling of any fruit, like these simple baked apples
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 pieces of whole-wheat bread (or low-carb or other flavored bread)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Melt butter in 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Add brown sugar and Harvest Apples; stir well.

Whisk eggs, milk and vanilla extract in medium bowl until well combined.

Dip bread into egg mixture; place on top of apples.

Bake in oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until bread centers are firm.

Baked French Toast is any easy way to enjoy my favorite breakfast – and the apples add a lovely sweetness. Use low carb bread and sugar substitute for a low-carb option.
