Preparation

Step 1

1. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and maple syrup.

2. Place a single layer of bread slices in the base of the baking dish. Top with about 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts.

3. Pour about 1/2 of the egg mixture over the bottom layer.

4. Pour enough to cover the bottom layer.

5. If necessary, move the bread slices around so that they are completely covered with eggs.

6. Place another layer of bread and the other 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts on top of the first layer of bread and eggs.

7. Pour remaining egg mixture over the top layer.

8. Cover the top layer with the eggs, just as you did the bottom layer.

9. Again, press the bread slices around so that they are covered with the egg mixture.

10. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

11. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes, or until begins to golden on top. Prepare fresh fruit while it’s baking.

12. Serve baked Walnut French Toast with Fresh Fruit.

P.S. This easily doubles into a 9×13 glass pan.
