This Apple Cinnamon French Toast is giving us the perfect fall vibes!! Rich and indulgent, with this recipe, it’s difficult to tell whether you’re eating dessert or breakfast!
Add apple slices, brown sugar, and butter in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the brown sugar has dissolved and butter has melted. Add 1/4 teaspoon vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and reduce heat to simmer. Cook 6-8 minutes longer. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly and thicken while you prepare toast.
In a large, wide bowl whisk together eggs, vanilla, milk, and cinnamon. Stir in flour and whisk until smooth. Completely submerge one slice of bread in the mixture, careful to coat both sides. Lift the bread out of the liquid and allow excess to drip off.
Cook toast in a large pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned, then flip and cook the other side 1-2 minutes. Repeat with remaining bread slices. Generously top toasts with the apple-cinnamon mixture. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.
