Ingredients
- 4 cups heavy cream shopping list
- 4 eggs shopping list
- 4 Tablespoons Grand Marnier (you can substitute orange juice) shopping list
- 4 Tablespoons granulated sugar shopping list
- 2 Tablespoons orange zest shopping list
- French bread (I also use Peasant bread) shopping list
- orange Butter: shopping list
- 6 oz. butter (softened) shopping list
- juice of one orange shopping list
- 1 Tablespoon Grand Marnier shopping list
- 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar shopping list
- orange zest from one orange shopping list
How to make it
- Put 10 - 12 pieces of French bread in a baking dish. Mix ingredients together and pour over bread. Put in refrigerator overnight. Turn slices after two hours.
- Next day, pre-heat oven to 375 degrees/ Butter cookie sheet and transfer bread. Bake 30 - 40 minutes, turning halfway through. (You will want a baking dish on the rack below to catch any melted butter after you flip the bread.)
- Set French toast on a serving tray and sprinkle with confectioner's sugar. Serve with maple syrup and orange butter (recipe below).
- Orange Butter Directions:
- Soften butter. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Form a ball and refrigerate. **I had a problem with this forming a ball. The liquid wants to separate. My solution, refrigerate, then before serving, melt for 30 seconds in the microwave and drizzle over French toast when serving. Was delicious like this and looked very pretty.**
Ready to soak for the evening
