Tasty Variations
Make it from Scratch
To keep this recipe quick and easy, I used a premade apple pie filling. But you could totally make your own filling from scratch as well.
If you want to give it a shot, the simple homemade filling in these apple pie bites is a good one to start with.
Change the Filling Flavor
This makes a great base recipe for your own french toast casserole creations! Try making this with cherry pie filling, pumpkin pie filling, or leave off the pie filling altogether and top it with fresh-picked berries. It's so good!
