This sourdough French toast recipe is so simple and delicious. It only takes minutes to prepare and is pretty enough to be served even on special occassions.
Equipment
- 9x13 inch casserole dish, or similar
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter or coconut oil, for greasing the dish

- 2½ cups whole milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180C/350F.
- Grease your ovenproof dish with 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil. Add the cubed bread and chopped apples. Mix them together lightly.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon and salt on top. Mix it well and spread into an even layer.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter and milk until smooth. Pour this mixture over the bread and apples in the dish. It should just barely cover the cubed bread/apples.

Notes
- This recipe is great for using up old sourdough bread.
- I used whole wheat sourdough, but any type of sourdough bread will work here.
- This dish can be assembled the night before, to be baked in the morning.
- Leftovers can be reheated in a covered dish in the oven.
