Sweet Caramel French Toast

Ingredients 0/11

Step 1

Greas a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. Stir it gently until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Pour this caramel sauce into the baking dish, then sprinkle pecans evenly on top. Arrange the apple slices over the pecans, and layer the bread slices on top in two even layers.

Step 2

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, almond extract, and a pinch of salt. Pour this custard mixture over the layered bread, making sure everything is soaked well. Let it sit at room temperature for about an hour, or cover and pop it in the fridge overnight if you want to prepare it ahead of time.

Step 3

When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Take off the cover and bake the dish until it’s puffy and golden brown, which should take around 40 to 45 minutes. Enjoy!
