Method

1. Add all the apple compote ingredients to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over a medium heat. Stir occasionally to make sure the apples are not sticking to the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 5-8 minutes (depending of the apples you use) until the apples are cooked and still tender and most of the liquid evaporates.

2. In a shallow bowl combine the eggs with milk, maple syrup/honey and vanilla extract. Warm up the butter in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Drop one slice of brioche at time in the egg mixture, flip and add to the pan. Repeat with remaining slices. Fry for 3 minutes on each side until the egg is cooked and the toasts have a deep brown colour.

3. Serve the French toast hot with the spiced apple compote, orange slices, sour cream and more maple syrup or honey.
