OMG, girlfriends! Let me tell you about this absolutely divine breakfast recipe that had my family literally fighting over the last bite! Trust me, this Caramel Apple French Toast Casserole is about to become your new weekend obsession. 😍
Y’all, as a busy mom who loves treating her family to something special, I’ve perfected this recipe after countless Sunday morning experiments. It’s like a warm hug for your taste buds!
Here’s what you’ll need (I know you’re already drooling):
– 1 large brioche loaf, cubed
– 4 Granny Smith apples, diced
– 6 large eggs
– 2 cups whole milk
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
– 2 teaspoons cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
– Caramel sauce (store-bought is fine, honey – we’re not judging!)
Now, let’s get cooking! First things first, put down that phone – unless you’re following me on Newsbreak for more mouthwatering recipes like this one! 😉
Instructions (super easy, I promise):
1. Grease a 9×13 baking dish (don’t be shy with that butter!)
2. Layer half the brioche cubes, then add your diced apples
3. Pour half the caramel sauce over it (seriously, go wild!)
4. Add remaining brioche on top
In a bowl, whisk together:
– Eggs
– Milk
– Cream
– Brown sugar
– Vanilla
– Spices
Pour this heavenly mixture over your bread layers. Now here’s my secret tip – cover and refrigerate overnight! Trust your girl on this one; it makes ALL the difference!
The next morning:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden brown
3. Drizzle with remaining caramel sauce
Ladies (and gents!), the smell while this bakes is EVERYTHING! Your neighbors might “accidentally” stop by for breakfast! 😂
