Time 3h45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 loaf challah or brioche (1 pound), cut into about twelve 3/4-inch-thick slices
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar, divided
Kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
4 crisp apples, such as Gala, Braeburn, or Envy, peeled and cut into 1-inch wedges (about 5 1/2 cups)
6 large eggs, whisked
1 1/3 cups whole or 2 percent milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Confectioners' sugar
Greek yogurt, toasted chopped pecans, and raspberries or pomegranate arils, for serving

Steps:

  • Spread bread slices on a baking sheet; let stand at least a few hours and up to overnight. Melt butter in a large ovenproof, nonreactive skillet (like an 11-to-12-inch enameled cast iron) over medium heat. Add 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil; cook 1 minute.

  • In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar, vanilla, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Dip bread in mixture, turning to coat. Arrange atop apples, shingling in concentric circles. Pour remaining mixture on top. Cover; refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 24.

STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH APPLES



Stuffed French Toast with Apples image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 red apples, such as Macintosh, cored and diced
3 teaspoons Truvia® natural sweetener spoonable*
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 ounces 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/4 cup dried cherries, coarsely chopped
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 slices Pepperidge Farm 80 calorie cinnamon swirl bread
2/3 cup 1% milk
2 large eggs
1/8 teaspoon salt
*May substitute with 3 1/2 packets Truvia® natural sweetener

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine apples, 4 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon Truvia® natural sweetener, and cinnamon. Cover and cook until apples are tender and juicy, about 6 minutes. Uncover, toss and set aside.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese, walnuts, cherries, 1 teaspoon Truvia® natural sweetener, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla. Put 4 slices bread on a cutting board and evenly spread with cream cheese mixture, about 1/4 cup per slice. Firmly press a second piece on top of each to form a sandwich.
  • 3. In a shallow bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, remaining 1 teaspoon Truvia® natural sweetener and vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Heat a heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water skitters around the pan. Soak each sandwich in the milk mixture for 1 minute, turning once and pressing edges of bread together. Allow excess to drip off and place sandwiches in the hot skillet. Cook, turning once until browned and crisp on both sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve the French toast with the apples on top.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

FILLING
1 1/3 cups low-fat whipped cottage cheese or low-fat ricotta cheese
3 tablespoons light agave nectar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
1/3 cup raisins (optional)
FRENCH TOAST
8 slices regular or cinnamon raisin sprouted grain bread
2 large eggs plus 1 large egg white, beaten, 5 large egg whites, or 2/3 cup egg substitute
2 cups 1 percent low-fat milk or unsweetened soy milk
2 scoops sugar-free vanilla whey protein powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
1/4 cup light agave nectar
APPLES
2 tablespoons unsalted butter or non-hydrogenated butter substitute
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup light agave nectar

Steps:

  • Lightly oil a baking sheet and set aside.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with canola oil spray. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • To make the filling, mix together all the ingredients in a bowl.
  • To make the French toast, lay out four slices of bread on a clean work surface and spread evenly with the filling mixture. Place the remaining slices of bread on top, sandwich-style. Cut each "sandwich" on the diagonal and set aside. Whisk together the eggs, milk, whey, vanilla extract, salt, and agave nectar. Soak the sandwich halves in the egg mixture, turning them over until both sides are very moist. In the prepared skillet, sauté the sandwiches over medium heat. Brown 1 side, then carefully turn to brown the other side. Remove from the pan and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until cooked through and hot on the inside.
  • To prepare the apple topping, melt the butter in a large sauté pan, add apples, and sauté over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring often. Add the cinnamon and agave nectar and cook together for a few minutes more until the mixture is bubbly and the apples are tender. Spoon the mixture over the French toast.
