Easy French Toast Bake with Almonds

This easy french toast bake was actually a "breakfast for dinner" recipe so feel free to try this one for a weekend breakfast or with some beers on a Tuesday. This healthy and easy french toast bake came about after a trip to the local deli. In particular, I love their bread. Their bread is absolutely delicious, so I inquired about buying a loaf. Rather than letting me purchase, I was given the bread out of the goodness of their heart. Well, it's not a far leap to toast when one has a lot of bread on hand. Next stop, french toast. Laziness dictated that individual slices were too much work so this bake was born. This recipe is very versatile in that you can add whatever spices you like to this easy french toast bake itself as well as top it with endless goodies...
