French Onion Mac and Cheese

We start by simmering sweet and tart apples in warming spices to create the perfect filling, then stuff it inside of soft challah. It's dipped in a creamy custard and griddled until GBAD (golden brown and delicious!), and served with a spiced whipped cream. Get ready to throw out any other French toast recipe!
