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