SWISS APPLE AND BREAD DESSERT
Easier than bread pudding, and a good way to use up stale bread. Adapted from Breads of the World. Do not freeze this recipe. NOTE: I hope my description didn't mislead anyone into thinking this is supposed to have the same texture as bread pudding. It isn't.

APPLE FRENCH BREAD BAKE
This is a recipe I received from my French teacher at school. It didn't specify a certain type of apple so I used granny smith because I prefer sour, but I suppose it would work with whatever is your preference. I used light cream cheese, I didn't add the walnuts, and I was also able to coat all the bread cubes with just 4 tbsp of butter instead of six, but I'm just putting the recipe on here as it is. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!
