Ingredients
- Powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup, for dusting
- Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Eggs
- 4, beaten
- Bread
- 8 slices, preferably day-old
- Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons
- Granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup
- Apricots
- 2 cups, pitted and sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), and grease a baking dish with a bit of butter.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced apricots, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Stir until the apricots are well-coated. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens and the apricots are tender. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once done, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the beaten eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. This will be your French toast batter.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well soaked.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the soaked bread slices and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Arrange the cooked French toast slices in the prepared baking dish. Spoon the apricot mixture evenly over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the French toast is firm and the apricot topping is bubbly and caramelized.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Dust the top generously with powdered sugar.
- Serve warm, ideally with a side of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent touch. Enjoy!
