ingredients

• 1 loaf Texas toast thick bread
• 2 Granny Smith apples, diced
• 1 cup golden raisin
• 1 cup toasted pecans
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 6 large eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 1⁄4 cup sugar or 6 teaspoons stevia
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

directions

1. Take 6 slices of Texas toast and spread with cream cheese generously. Lay them cream cheese up in bottom of 9 x 13 pan, top with pecans, apples and raisins. Lay 6 more pieces of Texas toast on top. In a large bowl mix together the milk, eggs, cinnamon and sugar, Pour it over Texas toast in pan, be sure to do it slowly so it covers the toast. Cover with plastic wrap and let cool in a refrigerator for 4 hours or overnight.
2. Bake on 375 for 1 hour till you see it turn golden brown and puffed up. It can get rather tall so beware.
3. * As a tip after covering with plastic wrap put 3 boxes of broth on top for weight. It helps saturate the Texas toast.
