I didn't have any almonds on hand, so I used chopped walnuts instead. The walnuts worked just as well and added a nice crunch to the French toast bake.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter bread. I would recommend using a less sweet bread if you don't like your French toast too sweet.
