Apple Maple French Toast

Apple Maple French Toast

INGREDIENTS

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ground cinnamon
  • 6 slices bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter, plus more for serving
  • 3 apples, peeled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

DIRECTIONS

 

Whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla, and a pinch of ground cinnamon in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the bread in a single layer, turning until all the egg is absorbed.

Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter, and add apples, stirring to coat until starting to caramelize. Add the water, cooking until water has evaporated and apples are tender, about 4 minutes.

Pour in the maple syrup and a dash of ground cinnamon; simmer for a minute to combine.

In a large, heated nonstick skillet, melt about 1 tablespoon butter and sauté the soaked bread until golden brown on each side, about 4 minutes. Place French toast on a plate and top with apple-maple mixture, plus more butter if you’d like.
