Large measuring cup or bowl

Ingredients

¾ Loaf of Bread about 18-20 ounces, cut into cubes
½ cup Plant-Based Butter + more to grease dish
¾ cup Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 ½ cups non-dairy Milk
2 teaspoon Vanilla

¼ cup Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
2 Apples diced
Maple Syrup

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400℉.
Grease your dish and add the bread cubes into the dish evenly. (It will look like it’s almost overflowing, but will decrease in size when baked.)
Melt the butter and add to the milk.
Mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla in with the milk and butter, then whisk together.
Pour the mixture evenly over the cubed bread in the dish.
Mix together the cinnamon, brown sugar, and diced apple for the topping and sprinkle on top.
Bake for 30 minutes.

Notes

You can cut this into 4, 6, or 9 slices, depending on how large you want the pieces.
The top should feel a bit hard/crusty when done in the oven, however underneath will be soft and delicious!
DO NOT rip your bread, it is best to cut your bread with a bread knife. Ripping it will reduce the volume of the bread and make it dense.
