Apple Pie Sandwiches

• 2 C diced, peeled
  
• 1 C water
• 1/2 C plus 1 TBSP sugar, divided
• 5 tsp cornstarch

• 12 slices bread
• 3 eggs
• 2/3 C milk

In a large saucepan, cook apples and water over medium heat for 10 minutes or until apples are tender. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, stir into apple mixture. Bring to a boil and cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Spread six slices of bread with 1/3 C filling each; top with remaining bread. In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs, milk, vanilla and remaining sugar. Dip sandwiches in egg mixture. Cook on a lightly greased hot griddle until golden brown on both sides. Sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar if desired or maple syrup.

I found this one on someones blog, (can't remember who's, just holler if it was yours :o)) I changed it a bit to what I had in my cupboard and we LOVED it!! I also made it once and added a thin layer of cream cheese to the mix. This was great too.
