  1. Thaw Eggs: Thaw under refrigeration for 48 hours. Hold at 41° F or lower.
  2. Pan and Thaw Sausage: Per 25 servings, spray one 4” steam table pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line each pan with 63 sausage links (21 links x 3 links). Cover and place thaw under refrigeration overnight. Hold at 41° F or lower.
  3. Prepare Bread: Per 25 servings, cube 38 slices (2 lb 6 oz) of bread. Note: Do not use dried bread as dried bread will change the grain equivalent.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  5. Drain Pears: Drain pears. Hold at 41° F or lower.
  6. Mix Ingredients: Per 25 servings, whisk together 1 ½ cup (14.25 oz wt) eggs, 1 cup (8 fl oz) milk, 1 Tbsp vanilla extract, ½ cup melted margarine, ½ cup maple syrup, and 2 Tbsp cinnamon. Fold in cubed bread until bread absorbs egg mixture. Fold in 1 qt 2 ¼ cups (2 lb 13 oz wt) drained pears, 3 ⅛ cup, packed (1 lb 4 oz wt) dried cherries. Pour mixture evenly over the top of thawed sausage links. Using a rubber spatula, pack bread down making the top even.
  7. Bake and Portion: Bake in the oven 30-35 minutes, uncovered. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Cut pan into 5 x 5 pieces. Note: Be sure to cut all the way to the bottom and through the sausage links. Heat to 165° F or higher for 15 seconds. Hold at 140° F or higher.
  8. Serve: 1 slice. Hold at 140° F or higher.
