Apple French Toast Casserole

Author Amber Brady
Yields 8 servings

Ingredients

Apple and Oat Mixture:

  • ½ cup (113 g) butter, melted
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup (40 g) oats, (old fashioned or quick cook)
  • 2 large or 3 small granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced

French Bread:

  • 8 (1-inch) slices of French bread, (about ¾ of a loaf depending on how big it is)
  • 1 cup (237 ml) heavy cream
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Place melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and oats in the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish.
  • Layer apple slices on top of the oat mixture to fill the bottom of the pan.
  • Layer 8 slices of French bread on top of the apples.
  • Mix heavy cream, eggs, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. Pour evenly over the French bread.
  • Combine 2 Tbsp sugar with ½ tsp of cinnamon and sprinkle over the top of the soaked bread.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and let refrigerate several hours to overnight, until the bread has soaked up all the eggy liquid.
  • Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 to 50 minutes or until the bread in the center puffs up and is cooked through.
  • Scoop slices of French toast out, one and a time, and invert them onto a plate so the bottom becomes the top with the oat and streusel mixture facing up. Drizzle with syrup if desired. Enjoy hot.
