In this “grilled cheese and apple sandwich meets French toast,” thin slices of apples are wedged between two slices of cheese and bread.


Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Serves: 4


 Ingredients:
•8 slices (1/2-inch/1 cm) day old  sourdough, French or Italian bread
•8 slices medium Ontario cheddar cheese
•2 Ontario McIntosh or Empire apples, thinly sliced
•3 Ontario eggs
•3/4 cup (175 mL) Ontario milk
•2 tbsp (25 mL) granulated sugar
•1/2 tsp (2 mL) vanilla
•2 tbsp (25 mL) butter
•Ontario maple syrup


 Preparation Instructions:
    Place 4 slices of the bread on work surface and top each with 1 slice of cheese. Place even layer of apples on cheese, then top with second cheese slice. Cover with remaining slices of bread to make 4 sandwiches.
    In medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Pour into shallow dish large enough to hold 1 sandwich.
    In large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
    Dip sandwich into egg mixture, turning to soak (don’t oversoak). Add 2 sandwiches to skillet at a time and cook until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut in half and serve with maple syrup.
    Tip: One or two day-old stale bread is ideal for French toast as fresh bread absorbs too much liquid, making it soggy.
