NEXT-DAY BAKED CINNAMON-APPLE FRENCH TOAST



Next-Day Baked Cinnamon-Apple French Toast image

We made this for Christmas morning this year (2009). My mother found the recipe in her local paper -- The Daily Breeze in Redondo Beach, CA. When I made it, I added in not just the apples, but all the liquid -- as a result the dish was more like bread pudding than french toast ... it was still great, and I'd make it that way again. But if you'd like a drier texture, don't add the apple liquid. I also swapped out the cinnamon and nutmeg for two teaspoons of Recipe #45672 .

Provided by KLHquilts

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
8 slices white bread (use Texas toast, that REALLY thick white bread)
8 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 cups milk (original recipe calls for whole milk, I used 2%)
1 tablespoon vanilla (use the very best! Use Penzey's!)
6 apples (used a variety ( Jonagold, McIntosh, your favorites)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (plus more to grease pan)

Steps:

  • Peel, core and cut apples into 1/4" thick slices. Heat butter in a saute pan until foamy; add apples and cook until tender (about 10 minutes).
  • Turn off heat and stir in brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
  • Toast bread. Cut slices in half on the diagonal, making triangles.
  • Butter a 13x9 baking dish and arrange bread triangles in 2 rows, overlapping. (There was no photo for this, and I couldn't figure out the best way to do it -- I ended up with an arrangement that looked like two Flying Geese quilt borders, going opposite directions.).
  • Beat eggs in a medium bowl; add sugar, milk and vanilla and beat well. Pour custard mixture over bread. Spoon apples over top. Cover and refrigerate over night.
  • The next morning, heat oven to 350. Uncover baking dish and bake 60 minutes, until custard is set and doesn't shimmy when you tap it.
  • Let dish rest for 10 minutes when you take it out of oven. The original recipe says to serve in squares -- hah! Serve by spoonful; there wasn't any chance that I was going to get this out of the pan in nice, neat squares. Serve with honey butter, maple syrup, or nothing -- it's quite sweet, and the apples create a lovely topping.

Intro

Apple cinnamon French toast recipes are a delicious twist on the classic breakfast favorite. The combination of tender apples, warm cinnamon, and sweet syrup can satisfy any sweet tooth. To create the perfect apple cinnamon French toast, follow these valuable tips.

Use quality bread

The bread you use for your French toast can make or break the dish. Choose a bread with a soft, tender texture and a slightly chewy crust. Brioche, challah, or Texas toast are good choices. French bread can also work, but make sure it is not too crusty. Stale bread works best for French toast, so if your bread is fresh, leave it out overnight to dry out.

Make the apple cinnamon mixture

The apple cinnamon mixture is the star of the dish. Peel and chop two apples into small pieces. Combine the apples, two tablespoons of butter, two tablespoons of brown sugar, and one teaspoon of cinnamon in a small saucepan. Cook the mixture over medium heat for five minutes or until the apples are tender. Let the mixture cool before spooning it onto the French toast.

Soak the bread properly

To make sure your French toast is tender and moist, soak the bread properly. Whisk together three eggs, one cup of milk, one teaspoon of cinnamon, one teaspoon of vanilla, and two tablespoons of sugar in a shallow dish. Dip each slice of bread into the mixture, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Do not soak the bread for too long or it will fall apart.

Cook the French toast correctly

Cooking the French toast correctly is crucial for achieving the right texture. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt two tablespoons of butter. Once the butter is melted, add the soaked bread to the pan. Cook each side for two to three minutes, or until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will lower the temperature and make the French toast soggy.

Keep the French toast warm

French toast is best served hot, but if you are cooking for a crowd, it can be difficult to keep everyone's plates warm. Preheat your oven to 200°F and place a wire rack on a baking sheet. Once you have cooked each slice of French toast, place it on the wire rack in the oven to keep it warm while you cook the rest. This will prevent the French toast from getting soggy or cold.

Serve with the apple cinnamon mixture and syrup

To serve, stack two slices of French toast on each plate and spoon the apple cinnamon mixture on top. Drizzle with syrup and serve immediately.

Experiment with different toppings

While the apple cinnamon mixture is a classic topping for French toast, feel free to experiment with different flavors. Try topping your French toast with fresh berries, whipped cream, or even peanut butter and banana. The possibilities are endless, so get creative!

Conclusion

Making the perfect apple cinnamon French toast requires a few key steps, including using quality bread, making the apple cinnamon mixture, soaking the bread properly, cooking the French toast correctly, and keeping it warm. By following these valuable tips, you can create a delicious and satisfying breakfast dish that everyone will love.
