Directions:

Combine milk, eggs, maple syrup, 2 Tablespoons sugar, orange peel and salt; mix well.

Marinate cherries in orange juice and remaining 1 Tablespoon sugar overnight.

Carefully transfer bread slices to a nonstick, buttered baking sheet using a large spatula; allow excess liquid to drip into pan used for soaking overnight.

Bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven 15 to 18 minutes; turn slices over halfway through baking time. Top each slice with 1/2 cup cherries and a dollop of vanilla yogurt. Serve immediately.
