Preparation

In a large flat dish whisk eggs with milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Dip bread into egg mixture. Turn to coat bread well. Allow bread to soak up egg mixture at least 5 min.

To cook, use one or two (depending on the size of the bread) baking sheets. Either line with aluminum foil and brush generously with melted butter or spray well with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange bread in a single layer on prepared pan(s).

Bake in a preheated 375 °F (190 °C) oven for 12 min. Turn bread over. Bake 10 to 15 min longer until browned and puffed.

Apples and cinnamon syrup

Add butter and brown sugar to a deep skillet. Cook about 3 min until melted. Add water, cinnamon and apples. Cook just until tender about 8 to 10 min. Serve French toast with Apples and Cinnamon Syrup on top.
