Caramel Apple French Toast

recipe

• Step 1
  In a small saucepan over low heat, add the sugar. Without stirring it, let the sugar completely melt & slowly caramelize, until it becomes a nice brown color.
• Step 2
  Remove the pan from the heat once it is completely melted. Add the butter & whisk quickly until fully melted.
• Step 3
  Add half of the cream & stir using a whisk. Set aside. The caramel will thicken up while resting. If the sauce looks clumpy, reheat it for 1-2 min, over low heat, while whisking until it comes together smoothly.
• Step 4
  Wash & cut the apples into wedges & remove the core.
• Step 5
  In a shallow bowl, add : the remaining cream, a pinch of cinnamon (optional) & the eggs. Whisk to combine. Dunk the brioche slices into the mix to fully soak each side.
• Step 6
  Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan, over medium heat. Add the apples slices & cook for 5-6 min, until the apples are lightly browned. Set aside.
• Step 7
  In the same pan, melt a dab of butter. Add the soaked bread & cook for 2 min on each side, until cooked through & well browned.
• Step 8
  Serve the french toast topped with the warm apples & caramel sauce. Enjoy !
