How to Make Apple Cranberry French Toast
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a 13x9 inch baking dish, combine 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Add 4 cups peeled and thinly sliced apples and 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries. Toss gently to coat.
- Spread the apple and cranberry mixture evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Arrange 1 loaf (about 1 pound) of challah bread, cut into 1-inch thick slices, on top of the fruit mixture.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, ensuring all slices are soaked.
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight (up to 24 hours).
- Bake, covered with aluminum foil, for 40 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown and the custard is set.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving warm. Enjoy!
