Baked Apple French Toast Casserole

Description

The biggest challenge you will have with this recipe is that there is usually never enough. It makes an 11×7-inch pan, and is easily devoured by me and my wife and son. Quick, easy, and oh-so delicious. Top with maple syrup and powdered sugar to your liking.
