Overnight Strawberry Almond French Toast

This recipe is adapted from my Overnight French Toast.  We had some friends coming over for brunch and I wanted something yummy, but not so sugary for the little ones.  I loved the overnight french toast I made awhile back, so I lightened it up with honey and less butter.  I will say I like the full fat version better because I am not a huge fan of honey.  The only difference with the lighter version is the bottom layer is a little softer because it doesn't get the crisp from the brown sugar bottom.  The bottom layer is more like a pudding and the top layer is crisp like regular french toast.
