The biggest challenge you will have with this recipe is that there is usually never enough. It makes an 11x7-inch pan, and is easily devoured by me and my wife and son. Quick, easy, and oh-so delicious. Top with maple syrup and powdered sugar to your liking.

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray
4 eggs, beaten
½ cup half-and-half
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 (8 ounce) loaf French bread, cut into small cubes
¼ cup butter
3 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and cut into small dice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 7x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
