Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 4 heaping cups diced apples (4 to 5 apples)
  • 8 cups cubed bread
  • 2 cups half-and-half
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

    4
    In bowl, beat half-and-half, milk, eggs, vanilla and remaining cinnamon-sugar with whisk. Pour mixture over bread and apples, pressing down with spoon so everything gets soaked. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 12 hours to allow bread to soak up custard.

    Remove from refrigerator. Heat oven to 350°F. Bake about 40 minutes or until edges and top of bread are golden and casserole has puffed up a bit. Cool on rack 15 minutes before serving.
