Instructions

Assembling French toast

  • Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish. Set aside
  • Cut bread into cubes, about 1 inch. Set into prepared baking dish.
  • Whisk eggs. Add milk, cream, 3/4 c. brown sugar, vanilla, and apple pie filling. I usually cut the apple pie filling so they are in smaller pieces, but that's optional. Stir.
  • Pour egg/milk mixture over bread. Gently stir. 
  • Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight. If you don't want to wait overnight you can also let it sit for an hour then move on to the next step.
  • Using a pasty cutter cut butter, flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, cinnamon, apple pie spice, and salt together until it you have course crumbs. Store streusel in a the refrigerator in a sealable container overnight.

Baking and serving French toast

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Srpinkle streusel topping over French toast.
  • Bake uncovered for 50-60 minutes. The longer it bakes the more crispy and brown in will get on the top. 
  • Dust with powdered sugar. 
  • Serve with freshly whipped cream and maple syrup.
