I received this recipe from a coworker and made it for Easter brunch this year. It was easy to assemble and tasted fantastic. It was an instant hit with my family! I modified the original recipe, using low-fat egg/dairy products.
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup light butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 Granny Smith apples – peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- 1 loaf Italian bread, cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 1 ½ cups egg substitute
- 1 ½ cups skim milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Spray a 9×13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
Step 2
Mix brown sugar, butter, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Add apples, cranberries, and pecans; toss to coat. Evenly spread apple mixture to cover bottom of dish.
Step 3
Arrange bread slices atop apple mixture, overlapping slightly until apple layer is completely covered.
Step 4
Whisk egg substitute, skim milk, vanilla extract, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a bowl; evenly pour over bread slices. Cover dish with aluminum foil and refrigerate 4 to 24 hours.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 6
Bake the covered casserole dish in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until lightly browned and egg mixture is set, about 5 more minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
Cook’s Note:
If you use sweeter apples, you'll want to decrease the amount of brown sugar.
