How to Make Baked Apple French Toast Recipe
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish.
- Arrange 5 slices of bread in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Spread evenly with the apple pie filling.
- Top with the remaining 5 slices of bread.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, ensuring all slices are moistened.
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
- Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking to allow it to come to room temperature.
- While the French toast soaks, prepare the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, cold butter, pecans, and corn syrup. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the sugar until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the soaked bread.
- Bake, uncovered, for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
