Prepare the perfect tasty and delicious breakfast treat by following this Apple Challah French Toast Casserole. The recipe makes early morning meals a breeze while leaving everyone in the home feeling satisfied. They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and I have come to realize that over the years. When I eat a breakfast that fills me up, I am far less likely to snack between my other meals of the day. Although I know how important it is to eat breakfast, I am always looking for ways to spend less time preparing the meals that my family and I will eat, and fun breakfast ideas.

Apple Challah French Toast Casserole
The Apple Challah French Toast Casserole is a favorite family dish because it is both kid-friendly and adult-friendly. It is one of the most satisfying breakfast foods I have ever tasted. I love the taste of baked apples with cinnamon. It is the reason that apple pie is one of my favorite desserts. I am also a big fan of French toast for breakfast.
What makes this recipe such a huge hit in my household is that it combines that sweet flavor of baked apples with cinnamon while also giving me that savory taste that I would get when biting into a piece of French toast. In addition to how good it tastes to all of us, I love making the Apple Challah French Toast Casserole because it is such a simple dish to make with plenty of servings to go around. I am also a big fan of apples in breakfast such as these Apple Pie Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies or these Apple Pie Overnight Oats.
What Makes the Recipe Special to Me
The Apple Challah French Toast Casserole recipe is special to me because it uses Challah bread instead of traditional sliced bread.
- Challah bread brings this dish to life because of its sponge-like texture and sweetness from the touch of honey added to it.
- The bread holds up well when combined with the other ingredients in the dish instead of becoming a soggy mess.
- It is a non-dairy bread option for those looking to limit their dairy intake.
- I have so much fun preparing this casserole dish with my kids. I get the kids to help me prepare the bread and put everything in the casserole dish before placing it in the oven.
- The kids love that they can lend a helping hand while making one of their favorite breakfast meals of all time.
Food Storage Tips After Preparing Your Apple Challah French Toast Casserole
The last thing you want is for such a tasty breakfast meal to go to waste, so it is important to know how to store the food properly. You can slice the casserole into portions, wrap each piece with plastic wrap, and then put them together in a large food storage bag with a zipper seal.
Place the casserole portions in the fridge until you want to eat them. While you can eat it right from the refrigerator, all it takes is a few seconds in the microwave to warm the casserole and make it taste just like it did when it came fresh out the oven.
