Cube up the 1 loaf of Italian bread into 1-inch chunks. It's not necessary, but to have the bread keep its shape better, let it dry out slightly. It can just air dry or place it into a 275 degree oven for 10-15 minutes until dry. Turn the cubes of bread every 5 minutes so nothing burns.
In a mixing bowl, add in the 1 cup half and half,1/2 cup apple juice, and lightly beaten 8 large eggs. Whisk until combined.
Add in the 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/3 cup light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until combined.
Add the bread and 1 green apple (1 1/4 cups cubed) and toss until thoroughly coated with the wet mixture.
Spray the inside of the 6-quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour the french toast mixture into the prepared slow cooker. Place a paper towel on the top of the slow cooker insert. It should have a slight overhang on either side of the slow cooker. Place lid on top of the paper towel.
Cook for 4 hours on low or until the french toast no longer looks wet.
Serve warm with maple syrup or caramel sauce.
