Ingredients

• 3 medium Apples (preferably Fuji or Granny Smith)
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 4 slices White bread slices
• 3 tablespoons Milk
• 1 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Oil or butter (for frying bread)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and core the apples, then slice them into thin wedges.

Step 2

In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they begin to soften.

Step 3

Sprinkle in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Stir well to coat the apples evenly.

Step 4

Cook the apples for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and tender.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract, stir, and remove the skillet from heat. Set the caramelized apples aside.

Step 6

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create a custard for the bread slices.

Step 7

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil or butter.

Step 8

Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated, then place them into the hot skillet.

Step 9

Fry the bread slices for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove the cooked bread from the skillet and place on a plate.

Step 10

To serve, divide the fried bread slices between two plates and top with the warm caramelized apples. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with maple syrup for added sweetness.
