Sandwiching sausage and apples between bread slices makes this baked French toast a bit different. I like to serve to guests who spend the night, relates Renee Olson of Kendrick, Idaho. It's a great way to get them going in the morning. Ingredients:
3/4 pound bulk pork sausage |
2 medium apples, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices |
6 eggs |
2-1/2 cups milk |
1/3 cup maple syrup |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
18 slices french bread (1/2 inch thick) |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Remove and set aside. Add apples to the skillet; cover and cook for 3-5 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.
2. In a bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, milk, syrup and nutmeg until combined. In a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish, arrange half of the bread. Top with the sausage, apples and remaining bread. Pour egg mixture over the top. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
3. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until eggs are set and bread is golden. Yield: 9 servings.
