Equipment

  • Griddle and/or pan(s)
  • Apple corer and peeler (or paring knife)

Ingredients

French Toast

  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk I used my son's whole milk, but any should work
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 Tbs butter
  • 6 slices of bread I used whole wheat, but French bread is extra delicious

Apple Topping

  • 2 apples cored, peeled, and diced
  • 2 Tbs brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 Tbs butter

Instructions

  • In a shallow bowl (I like to use a glass pie pan), whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon (1/2 tsp), and vanilla.
  • Place diced apples in a bowl. Then add the brown sugar and cinnamon (1/2 tsp) and mix to coat apples.
  • Heat your griddle to 350 deg F and add butter (1/2 Tbs) in little pads on different areas of the griddle. Use a spatula to spread the butter evenly over the griddle. If you are using a normal pan, melt the butter in the pan on Medium heat.
  • In a separate pan while the griddle is heating up, melt butter (1Tbs) over medium heat. Once melted, add the apple mixture and cook for 3-5 minutes. The apples should be fork tender when done.

  • While the apple mixture is cooking, dip the bread slices one at a time in the egg (I usually dip twice on each side, allow excess to drop off back into bowl, and then place on the griddle.
  • Cook the french toast for 1-2 minutes per side. Sides will be golden brown when done.
  • Plate your french toast and then top with the apple mixture.
