Ingredients

  • 6 slices leftover challah
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk or half and half
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 apples peeled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • Additional butter for the pan
  • Powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  • To make the caramelized apple syrup, melt the butter in a medium or large saucepan. Add apples and stir until coated. Continue stirring to caramelize.
  • Add the water and cook until the water has evaporated and the apples are tender and golden, around 4 minutes. Pour in the maple syrup and simmer for another minute. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • In a Pyrex baking dish or large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt. Soak slices of challah on each side and place on a baking sheet.
  • Heat a sauté pan or large flat-top griddle on medium heat. Add butter until coated. Cook two slices at a time until golden on each side.
  • Serve with caramelized apple syrup and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
