Cranberry Apple Eggnog French Toast

From INN AT PLAYA DEL REY

Cooking Time:

50 to 60 minutes

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • 2 cups eggnog
  • 2 Tbsp vanilla
  • 3-4 medium green apples, sliced
  • 1 cup cranberries (fresh, dried or frozen) - save a few to sprinkle on top!
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 Tbs water
  • 6-10 slices white, wheat, or French bread
  •   Cinnamon sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 350
Spray a 9 x 13” ceramic baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Melt butter and mix in the brown sugar and water, set aside.
Thinly slice the apples and place them evenly on the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with cranberries.
Pour the butter mixture evenly over the fruit.
Cut the bread slices in half and place them, overlapping slightly, over the fruit covering the entire dish.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy, pour in the milk and vanilla, mixing until no yolks are showing.  Pour this mixture over the bread slices, making sure all have been saturated.  Cover and refrigerate over night.
Just before baking, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and place in a preheated 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes or until golden.
