Transfer the June Pan to the middle shelf of the June Oven. Bake the apples 15 minutes, until the syrup is bubbling and glossy. June will notify you when the apples are ready.
Remove the June Pan from the June Oven. With a spatula, gently stir the topping to coat the apples in the syrup. Set aside and allow to cool at least 15 minutes before adding to the casserole.
Rub the butter all over the interior of the baking dish, including the sides.

To a large bowl, add the eggs, half-and-half or whole milk, sugar, vanilla and salt. Using an immersion blender or whisk, blend the mixture until it is very smooth but not overly aerated, about 15 seconds for a blender.

Working one at a time, dip the bread slices in the custard, flipping them in the custard and allowing them to soak a few seconds to saturate. Arrange the bread slices in the prepared dish, overlapping the pieces as needed to make them fit. Pour any remaining custard evenly over the bread. With your hands, gently press and compact the bread slices slightly so the thickness of the casserole is roughly even.
Distribute the apples and any syrup evenly over the bread. Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight, at least 8 and up to 12 hours.

Transfer the uncovered baking dish to the middle shelf of the June Oven. Bake the French toast 35 minutes, until the custard has set and the top is golden brown. June will notify you when the French toast is ready.
Remove the French toast from from the June Oven and set on a cooling rack. Sprinkle the top with the toasted nuts and dust with powdered sugar, if using. Drizzle individual servings with maple syrup, if using, and serve hot.
