Can you believe it? Finally, a recipe that’s not from Rachael Ray!
This is based on a recipe from the back of an Imperial Margarine box. It was delicious, and has been added to the family recipe collection.
Orange Spice French Toast
2 large eggs
1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice
zest of one orange
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
8 to 10 slices raisin bread, halved diagonally
Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
In a large bowl, using a wire whisk, beat together eggs, half-and-half, sugar, orange juice and zest, vanilla and cinnamon until well blended.
Heat non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip each piece of bread into the egg mixture, then cook in pan until both sides are golden brown, flipping once during cooking. When cooked, place in over-proof pan in the oven to keep warm until ready to serve.
