  • 3. Place sliced bread on top of apples. Mix eggs, milk & vanilla and pour over bread.

I'm not a fan of cinnamon, so I omitted it from the recipe. It still turned out great.

I found that the apples didn't caramelize as much as I would have liked. I think I'll try cooking them for a little longer next time.

This recipe is a little too sweet for my taste. I would cut the amount of sugar in half next time.

I made this recipe exactly as written and it turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of bread. I used white bread and it was a little too soft for my liking.
