Apple Breakfast Bake
An easy recipe for Apple Breakfast Bake from our contributor, Alice Seuffert of Dining with Alice.
One of my favorite ways to start a slow weekend is to make a breakfast bake for my family. I love days where we can stay in our pajamas and drink endless cups of coffee. My family equally loves savory breakfast bakes, like my Ham and Tater Tot Egg Bake and sweet casseroles, like this Apple Breakfast Bake.
This Apple Breakfast Bake is one of my favorite breakfast bakes to make because apples are available all year. So it is a perfect breakfast for the fall, Christmas morning, Easter or Mother's Day.
For the bread base in the recipe, I use Hawaiian rolls. The sweetness of the rolls pairs perfectly with the tart apples. If you love Hawaiian rolls as much as I do, you should try my Baked Ham Sandwich recipe, they are mini ham sandwiches baked inside buttery ranch Hawaiian rolls.
This breakfast bake is simple to prepare and would be a great cooking project with your kids on a slow weekend. Once you get the apples and bread chopped up, the oven does all the work and cooks this Apple Breakfast Bake to perfection. Drizzle melted butter and brown sugar on top and you're all set to celebrate a big family event or slow weekend with your family.
