Instructions

Prepare the caramel apple topping:
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized.
- Stir in the caramel sauce and cook for 1-2 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the French toast mixture:
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
Cook the French toast:
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Place the dipped bread onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining bread, adding more butter as needed.
Assemble and serve:
- Place the cooked French toast slices on plates and spoon the caramel apple topping over each slice. Drizzle with additional caramel sauce if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra indulgence, top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
You can use any apple variety, but Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work particularly well.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
