Oven French Toast with Sausage Apples & Cranberries
Report
This is no ordinary oven french toast. It's sweet and savory. Like a cross between an apple french toast and Thanksgiving stuffing. It has pops of cranberry, crunchy toasted pecans and grated sharp cheddar cheese. Serve with maple syrup.

Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown the sausage, breaking it up into small bits with the back of a fork. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Drain most of the excess fat from the pan.
- Add apples, sage, and cranberries. Cook for an additional 5-6 minutes or until the apples start to soften and the fresh cranberries start to burst.
- Remove the sausage mixture from the heat and stir in the cheese.
- Place bread in a large bowl. Add sausage mixture and toss to combine.
- In a medium bowl, combine eggs, milk, brown sugar and cinnamon. Whisk together.
- Spray a large casserole dish with vegetable spray. Add the sausage mixture. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cover the casserole with tin foil and place in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue cooking for an additional 30-45 minutes or until set. Allow bread pudding to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve with maple syrup on the side.
