Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf brioche bread, cut into cubes
- 3 medium apples, peeled and sliced
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided

Instructions
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread the cubed brioche evenly inside.

- Spread the warm apple mixture evenly over the bread cubes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 2 cups milk, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until smooth.
