How to Make Baked Apple Cranberry French Toast

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, gently toss the diced apples and cranberries with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter.
4. Arrange half of the bread slices in the prepared baking dish. Pour half of the egg mixture over the bread, ensuring it's soaked.
5. Top with the apple cranberry mixture, then layer with the remaining bread slices.
6. Pour the remaining egg mixture evenly over the top layer of bread.
7. Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the casserole.
8. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
9. Remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set.
10. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup and whipped cream, if desired.
