Steps:
- Make the frangipane: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together almond paste, butter, eggs, flour, and lemon zest until smooth. (Frangipane can be made 3 days ahead and stored in an airtight container, refrigerated, until ready to use. Let soften at room temperature before using.)
- Make the apples: Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add apples and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove apples from skillet and wipe skillet clean. Return apples to skillet and add maple syrup; cook until apples are soft. Keep warm until ready to serve.
- Preheat broiler.
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. In a large, shallow dish, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, almond extract, and cinnamon. Working in batches, dip brioche in egg mixture to coat. Transfer to skillet and cook, turning, until golden brown on each side, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining bread and egg mixture. Let French toast cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Lightly spread frangipane evenly over one side of each piece of French toast; transfer to broiler and broil until golden, about 30 seconds. Divide French toast evenly among four serving plates and top with apples and toasted almonds; serve immediately with additional maple syrup.
COCONUT-ALMOND FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE
The buttery coconut-almond crust makes this French toast casserole truly special and offsets the creamy, fluffy texture of the bread. You'll want to assemble the dish the day before to give the bread time to soak in the custard.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly butter a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.
- For the French toast: Lay the bread slices in one layer (it's OK if they overlap a little) on a baking sheet. Bake the slices (to dry them out a little) for 6 minutes, then flip and bake for 6 minutes more. Set aside to cool.
- Whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, granulated sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Dunk each bread slice in the egg mixture to coat thoroughly and shingle the slices in the buttered casserole dish. Pour any remaining egg mixture over the bread. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- For the coconut-almond crust: Put 1/2 cup of the coconut, 1/3 cup of the almonds, granulated sugar, flour and salt in a food processor and process until very fine. Add the butter, egg and egg yolk and process well to form a smooth paste.
- To assemble the casserole: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the coconut-almond mixture evenly over the soaked bread slices. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup sliced almonds and 3 tablespoons coconut and bake until puffed and lightly golden and the custard is set (the center of the casserole will no longer jiggle when shaken), 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool for 1 hour before serving, or serve at room temperature.
- Serve with a sprinkling of powdered sugar and berries if using.
