Instructions
Cut up your loaf of day old french bread or loaf of bread into chunks (minus the heels of the bread).
Put in a bowl and pour milk on top.
In another bowl whisk eggs, sugar, vanilla and fold in caramel and apple bits, if adding those.
Add that mixture to your bread and milk and fold it together gently until combined.
If using mini bundt pan put a tsp of melted butter at bottom of each hole after you've sprayed well with non stick spray.
Fill each hole about 1/2 way full, they will rise.
For mini bundts bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes, just until egg is cooked, check at 15 minutes.
** If making in a 9x13 casserole dish spray with non stick spray, don't use melted butter, just spray with non stick spray and pour mixture in. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 min, then 10 minutes with foil removed (or until egg is cooked in middle of dish). Serve warm with a drizzle of caramel sundae topping!
