Preparation:
1. Slice bread into 1 1/2-inch slices. Coat a 9-by-13-inch pan with
nonstick cooking spray and tightly pack bread into pan.
2. In a large bowl, stir together eggs, milk, 1/2 cup sugar and the
vanilla. Pour half of the egg mixture over the bread slices.
3. Evenly distribute apple slices over bread. Top with remaining egg
mixture.
4. In a small bowl combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar, the cinnamon and
nutmeg. Sprinkle over apples. Dot with butter. Cover and refrigerate
overnight.
5. The next day, uncover pan and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 1
hour. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into squares
and serve warm. |
