Caramel Apple French Toast
1. Peel,
core, and slice apples. Place in a medium-size skillet. Pour ½ cup water over
apples. Simmer 4-5 minutes until apples are softened.
2. Drain
apples in colander. Place in a bowl and gently mix in cinnamon and a little
sugar if apples are tart. Set aside.
3. In
the same skillet, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Cook and stir
over medium heat until sugar melts and mixture just begins to come to a slow
boil. Pour into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with nuts.
4. Place
6 slices of bread on top of syrup and nuts. Divide apples among bread slices and
top with remaining 6 slices.
5.
Whisk
together eggs, milk, vanilla, and nutmeg. Pour over “apple sandwiches.” Cover
and refrigerate overnight.

the morning, preheat oven to 325° and bake uncovered for 40 minutes.

with a serving platter, and invert.
Cut each sandwich in half diagonally and serve with vanilla sauce.
