3 large green apples
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup (or more) brown sugar
12 ounces cream cheese
12 slices firm bread; your choice plain white, wheat French, sourdough,
cinnamon or your favorite
8 eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons vanilla
cinnamon

Set rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 350F. Butter a 13 x
9 inch baking pan. Core and cut the apples into thin wedges, leaving the
skin on or you may remove skin. In a skillet, melt butter with brown
sugar and 1 tablespoon water. Add the apples and cook, stirring for 2 to
3 minutes.
Transfer to the baking dish and let cool. Cut cream cheese into cubes
and arrange evenly over the apples. cut the slices of bread in half
diagonally and layer over the apples to cover the whole dish. In a large
mixing bowl, beat together eggs, milk and vanilla. Pour the egg mixture
over the bread, taking care to dampen all the bread. Sprinkle with
cinnamon. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until golden and puffed. Let cool
10 minutes before serving.
