Preparation Steps

1. Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.

2. Soak the Bread

Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.

3. Cook the French Toast

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the soaked bread slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining slices, adding more butter as needed.

4. Prepare the Cinnamon-Apple Compote

In a small saucepan, combine diced apples, 1/4 cup of water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and a pinch of cinnamon. Cook over medium heat until the apples are soft and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.

5. Assemble the Dish

Stack the French toast on plates, top with the warm cinnamon-apple compote, and sprinkle with fresh granola.
