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!
- 1 large sweet apple, peeled and thinly sliced (pink lady, braeburn, gala etc)
- 1 TBS butter
- ½ cup soymilk (or milk of choice)
- 2 large eggs
- 1½ tsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 6 slices bread (I like sourdough or italian)
- 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.
