Breakfast or Dessert!

I'm not sure which category this fits under so I just eat it for both! This is a recipe from a cook named MichelleM. I tried this and loved it! If you like french toast and you like apple pie, you'll love this! I added my photo!

Apple Pie Sandwiches

INGREDIENTS;

2 cups apples, peeled and diced 
1 cup water
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided 
5 teaspoons cornstarch 
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice 
12 slices white bread 
3 large eggs
2/3 cup milk 
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 
confectioners' sugar, for dusting
 
DIRECTIONS;

 In a saucepan, cook apples and water over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until apples are tender.
Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg.  Stir into the apple mixture.  Bring to a boil, cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.  Remove from heat.  Stir in lemon juice.
 Spread six slices of bread with 1/3 cup filling each.  Top with remaining bread.
 In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs, milk, vanilla and remaining sugar.  Dip sandwiches in egg mixture.
 Cook on a lightly greased hot griddle until golden brown on both sides.

Dust with confectioners sugar if desired or smother with maple syrup! Even top it with some ice-cream!
