French Toast with Roasted Cinnamon Apples

Make the roasted  cinnamon apples: Brush a small oven-safe dish with butter. Combine brown sugar,
cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl.  Layer half of the sliced apples on the baking dish then sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar on top; repeat to make another layer. Roast apples in an oven preheated to 350 degrees fahrenheit or turbo broiler for about 20 to 30 minutes. You can pour some hot water into the baking dish if the apples look dry midway through roasting. Set aside.

Whisk together eggs, sugar, milk, cream, and vanilla extract in a shallow bowl until well combined.

Heat butter on a nonstick pan over low heat. Dip both sides of a brioche slice quickly in the egg mixture. Pan-fry until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining slices. Transfer to a plate.
