French Toast with Applesauce Syrup

It’s Get Your Chef On reveal day with the ingredient of applesauce!  I can’t wait to see what the others have created – I decided to go the breakfast route.  My applesauce is in the syrup along with apple jelly and some spices served warm over the bake.

Your fun hosts for the challenge are:

Julie from White Lights on Wednesday
Jen from Four Marrs and One Venus

What I really love about this recipe is it can be made up the night before.  They bake in about 30 minutes and are cute served in these 8 oz. ramekins.  AND there is a surprise on the bottom… apples and caramel sauce.  A fun and easy breakfast!  And if you wanted, you could run a knife around the edge and turn upside down so the caramel runs down the sides. (another option for a bigger crowd is to double the ingredients below and make in a 9×13 baking dish)

      The apple sauce syrup sounds wonderful – we've just made a big batch of crab apple jelly and I am wondering if that might work as well.

      Do share this at this week's Empty Your Archive – we are linking up posts on sauces of all kinds sweet and savoury and this would be a lovely addition.

      You can also great old posts on all sorts of other food, craft, decor & parenting themes – Alice @ Mums Make Lists x
