The ingredients for Make Ahead Apple Pecan French Toast are:

6 small Egg, fresh, whole, raw
1.5 cup Milk, nonfat (skim milk)
1 cup, unpacked Brown Sugar
2 tsp Cinnamon, ground
2 medium (2-3/4" dia) Apples, fresh with skin
1Tbsp Candied Cinnamon Pecans (or Honey Roasted)
6 slice, small (2" x 2-1/2" x 1-3/4") Bread, french or vienna (includes sourdough) - cut into 2 slices each

Here is how you make Make Ahead Apple Pecan French Toast:

Grease baking dish.Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and spread it onto a large dinner plate.In a large bowl, combine the eggs and the milk and whisk them together until they're combined well.One by one, dip the slices of bread in the egg mixture for a second or two and then press each side of the bread into the brown sugar mixture to coat the bread lightly in the sugar and cinnamon. Shake of any excess and add the slices of bread to the greased baking dish at about a 45 degree angle. Repeat this process until the baking dish is full and you've used up all the slices of bread. If you have any extra egg mixture, gently pour it over the slices of bread and then sprinkle any extra sugar mixture over the top as well.Chop the apples (Don't peel them. They're much prettier with the peel on). Sprinkle the apples and pecans over the top of the egg-soaked bread. Use your fingers to push some of the apple pieces in between the slices of bread and then cover the whole baking dish with some plastic wrap.Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and let it refrigerate overnight.In the morning, remove the plastic wrap and place the baking dish in the cold oven. Set the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and let the baking dish heat up with the oven. Once the oven reaches 350 degrees, set the oven timer for 40 minutes. Let the casserole bake until the timer goes off and then check to see that it isn't over-cooking. It likely won't be quite done after 40 minutes and it will need another 10 minutes (a full 50 minutes) to achieve that slightly-crispy beautiful brown top.Serving Size: 4 servings of 3 slices eachNumber of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GUNIVERA.
