When the weather starts to get cold, a hot breakfast is a great way to start the day. I almost always have the ingredients on hand to make french toast, which makes it so easy to whip up. A friend just gave me a bag full of fall apples from a local orchard and this recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy them!
This week was a very busy one for me, so I’ll keep this short for everyone today (by short, I mean I’ll dazzle you with more photos!). This recipe is a pretty simple one, which is important for those busy weeks. It’s simple to make, and the simple ingredients come together for a warm and filling breakfast to get you out the door.
This fall has crept up on me in a big way. Thanksgiving is right around the corner! So many recipes and so little time! Don’t worry though, I finally got some butternut squash at the good ol’ farmers market this weekend, the recipes will be coming your way. Enjoy!
Cinnamon French Toast with Apples
Cinnamon french toast with apples is a great way to start any fall day. Dig in!
- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Cook Time: 12 mins
- Total Time: 27 mins
- Yield: 2 servings
- Category: Breakfast
Ingredients
Apples
- 1 large sweet apple, peeled and thinly sliced (pink lady, braeburn, gala etc)
- 1 TBS butter
Toast
- 1/2 cup soymilk (or milk of choice)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 6 slices bread (I like sourdough or italian)
Instructions
- Saute the apple slices in butter over medium high heat until starting to brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Preheat a griddle or large pan. Grease the pan to keep toast from sticking.
- Whisk together milk through cinnamon in a shallow dish.
- When the griddle sizzles with a splash of water you are ready to start cooking. Coat both sides of a slice of bread in the milk mixture and place onto the hot griddle. Flip after 1 minute, or when it starts to brown, and cook the other side.
- Continue until all the bread slices and coated and cooked. Serve with apples and maple syrup.
