Adapted from King Arthur Flour's Praline French Toast and Apple French Toast Bake

Syrup

  • 4 tbs butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbs honey

French Toast

  • Raisin Bread, sliced 1/2" thick and enough to fill an 8 X 8 pan (if you use thin store-bought bread, maybe try making a double layer?)
  • 1/4 cup cream
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 3 lg eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Apple Filling

  • 3 apples (I like 2 Grannies with 1 Gala)
  • 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbs sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbs of maple syrup
  • sprinkle of salt
  • 1 tbs melted butter

Melt the butter in a pot and then mix in the brown sugar and honey. Heat until the sugar has dissolved. Pour into an 8 X 8 pan. Layer the bread on top of the syrup. Mix together the cream, milk, eggs, vanilla, and salt. Pour over bread. Peal, core, and thinly slice the apples. Mix together with remaining ingredients and sprinkle on the top of the pan.

Cover and place in the fridge overnight. In the morning, take out the casserole dish and preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake around 50 minutes or until the apples are soft. Remove from the oven and let cool a couple of minutes before serving.
