Weekend mornings are our favorite.

There’s no rushing to get everyone ready, no lunches to pack and no dashing out the door to make sure we get to school before the bell rings.

And we always look forward to shaking up our regular breakfast routine with something other than our plain ol’ bowl of oatmeal.

Overnight French Toast Bakes are one of best things we look forward to on the weekend….especially since there’s no need to spend an hour slaving over the stove for a hot breakfast.

Ingredients

1 large loaf of French bread, sourdough bread, or challah (day old bread works best), cut into cubes with the two hard ends of the loaf discarded

3 medium apples, sliced thinly (I used Gala and Granny Smith apples)

6 large eggs

1 1/2 cups milk of your choice, I used almond

2 teaspoons apple pie spice

1/3 cup maple syrup or honey

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract


Streusel Topping

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon rolled oats

2 teaspoons chopped pecans

1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold butter


Topping

Caramel Sauce

Instructions

  1. Grease a 9x9 or 2.5 quart baking pan, with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, apple pie spice mix, maple syrup, and vanilla.
  3. Pour evenly over bread cubes. Press the bread cubes slightly down to absorb the milk/egg mixture. Cover baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or foil and store in the fridge for four hours. (***You can bake this immediately as well too but the toast may not soak up as much of the flavor.)

  4. Make the streusel topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon together. Mix in the oats and pecans. Cut in the cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks.
  5. Place mixture into a plastic bag. Seal and refrigerate overnight. This step can also be done in the morning before placing baking dish into the oven - whichever you find is easiest.

  6. When you are ready to bake, remove dish from refrigerator and uncover. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  7. Place an even layer of the sliced apples over the cubed bread.
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly on top. Add a few more slices of apples. Drizzle an even layer of caramel sauce on top.
  9. Bake covered with foil for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional for 15 - 20 minutes or until the French toast is set and golden brown. (Watch oven time carefully as it may vary. )
  10. Drizzle with caramel sauce before serving, if desired.
