Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of sweet and tart apples, such as Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, and Braeburn.
  • Soak the bread cubes in the milk mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the bread absorb the flavors of the milk and eggs.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a water bath. This will help keep the cake moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
