Ingredients

10 servings
  • 21 ounces apple pie filling (canned)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 apples (large, sliced)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 15 ounce loaf vienna (french bread or challah, roughly cubed)
  • 8 eggs (large)
  • 3 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats (or rolled oats for a chewier crumb)
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (or plain flour)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons butter (melted (I use light or reduced fat))
  • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar (or icing sugar)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons milk

Steps

  1. Heat a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat. Melt butter; add apple slices, sugar and cinnamon; mix through to evenly coat. Cook for 10-15 minutes until apples are soft and tender.

  2. Spray a 9x13 dish with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the diced bread in the baking dish; set aside.

  3. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar (or sweetener), vanilla and cinnamon. Pour the egg mixture over the bread. Press bread down into the egg wash to completely soak.

  4. Pour the apple pie filling over the top of the soaked bread.

  5. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and melted butter. Mix well using a spatula or your fingertips,to soak the butter through the dry ingredients. Sprinkle evenly over the soaked bread in the baking dish.

  6. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.

  7. Preheat oven to 175°C | 350°F. Remove baking dish from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature for 20-30 minutes.

  8. Then bake for 40-50 minutes until the crisp is golden browned and the casserole is completely cooked through.

  9. In small bowl, whisk the glaze ingredients. Drizzle over casserole.

  10. Serve warm.
