What ingredients do I need to make this Lightened Up Apple French Toast Casserole?
Light butter – I like to use Land O’Lakes light butter made with canola oil or I can’t believe it’s not butter
3 cups or 2 large apples, chopped. I like to use a combination of different kind of apples such as: Granny Smith and Honey Crisp, Fuji, or Gala, or Pink Lady.
8 slices low calorie, low carb, low point bread-cut into chunks
4 large eggs
1.5 cups Fairlife skim milk, unsweetened almond, or coconut milk
1/2 cup white granulated sweetener
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Directions:
Melt the butter in a large skillet and add apples.
Cook apples on low to medium heat and stir for 5 minutes.
Add brown sugar, water, and cinnamon and continue to cook and stir for 8-10 minutes until apples are tender.
Spray a 9×13 inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Combine the bread chunks and cooked apples and lay in an even layer in the bottom of the dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients, and pour evenly over bread.
Cover the casserole and store in the fridge overnight.
When ready to bake the casserole, preheat the oven to 350° degrees.
Bake the casserole uncovered for about 35-40 minutes.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Store leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
