When Girl Meets 30

Sunday Brunch: Maple Bacon and Apple Baked French Toast

September 25, 2011 By Erin Kennedy Leave a Comment

 
Uh, what is this? This looks like a concoction I can get on board with. Bacon with anything is heaven in my mouth. Not to mention my husband’s mouth. I showed this to my husband and he almost fell over with a demand that I make it asap. However, I will probably stay away from this one, since it doesn’t really fit into the whole diet (avoid these 4 diet mistakes) sitch. I love that she makes it with King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls. I would have never thought of that. But that is why I don’t own a food blog. If anyone makes these, you will have to let me know how they are, and if it will be worth it to have it on a “cheat day.”



Maple Bacon & Apple Baked French Toast

Prep: 35 mins Inactive Prep: 8 hours Bake time: 60 mins Serves: 12

Ingredients:

21 King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

10 slices of maple bacon (~12 oz)

1 large Fuji apple, peeled, cored, quartered and sliced

1 Tbs maple syrup

8 large eggs

2 C whole milk

½ C heavy cream

3 Tbs sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Topping:

8 slices of maple bacon (~9 oz), cooked and crumbled

½ C powdered sugar

2 Tbs + 1 tsp maple syrup

1 tsp milk


Directions:

  • Quarter the rolls and place in a single layer on a baking sheet to dry out while you prepare the rest of the recipe steps.
  • Preheat oven to 325º F. Line a baking sheet with foil and place bacon in a single layer and bake for 35 mins. Remove from oven when done and place bacon on a paper towel to drain fat. Crumble bacon or use a knife to chop the bacon. Set aside.
  • Place sliced apples in a bowl and add maple syrup and stir to combine, set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, cinnamon and salt until combined.
  • Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish with butter and place half of the bread in a single layer in the bottom of the dish. Cover bread with ½ of the egg mixture. Place remaining bread into the egg mixture and stir to coat.
  • Place sliced apples on top of the bread in a single layer and sprinkle the bacon on top.
  • Gently place the remaining bread on top of the apple and bacon layer. Pour remaining egg mixture to the baking dish. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day: preheat oven to 350º F. Place dish on middle rack and bake for 60 minutes or until golden brown and puffy. If the French toast is browning too quickly, tent the baking dish with foil.
  • In the meantime, you can cook the bacon for the topping on the stove top or bake until crispy.
  • In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, maple syrup and milk.
  • Sprinkle bacon on top of baked French toast and drizzle with maple glaze. Serve with additional maple glaze or syrup if you like.
