Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 c brown sugar, packed
1/2 c butter, cubed
1/4 c corn syrup, light
3 large apples, peeled and chopped
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp apple pie spice
1 lb (1 loaf) day-old cinnamon bread
1/2 c chopped pecans
10 eggs
1 c 2% milk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter and corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes, until thickened.
  • 2. In a small bowl, combine the apples, lemon juice, sugar, and pie spice. Arrange half the bread in a greased 9x13" baking dish. Spoon apples over bread; drizzle with half the sauce. Sprinkle with pecans; top with remaining bread.

I used Granny Smith apples for this recipe and they were perfect. They held their shape well and didn't get too mushy.

I'm not a fan of caramel, so I used maple syrup instead. The strata was still very good.

I had a hard time finding the right size baking dish for this recipe. I ended up using a 9x13 inch dish and it worked out fine.

The strata was a little bland. I think I would add more spices next time.

I found this strata to be a bit dry. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.
