5. Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, remove the dish from the refrigerator and place it in the oven. Preheat the oven to 175°C. Bake the toasts for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the apple pieces are soft and the bread is golden. If you are making the toasts in the morning, dip the bread slices in the egg mixture before placing them in the dish. Pour the remaining egg mixture over the bread and bake at 175°C for 40–45 minutes.
