Ingredients
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp Milk
  • 1 Pinch of Salt
  • 8 diagonally sliced rounds of French baguette,
  • 2 Tbsp of orange zest
  • 2 Tbsp of Grand Marnier or Cointreau
  • 4 Tbsp of orange juice
  • 1 tsp of lemon zest
  • 1 Tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tin of Lyle's Golden Syrup (Or 1 1/2 cups of regular pancake syrup)
  • 4 Tbsp of Mascarpone cheese (You could use sour cream as a lower fat substitute)
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil for frying

Directions
  1. In a small saucepan, add syrup, 1 Tbsp of orange zest, 1 tsp of lemon zest and the 4 Tbsp of orange juice
  2. Simmer for at least 15 minutes - do not allow the syrup to boil or burn. You want the syrup to absorb the orange flavour, but not to burn.
  3. Add the liquor, stir, and take the pan off the heat
  4. Strain the mixture into a serving jug.
  5. In a bowl, add the eggs, milk, salt and the remainder of the orange zest.
  6. Beat the eggs until well mixed.
  7. Heat your frying pan to a medium temperature and add in butter and oil (the oil is important to stop the butter from burning and turning brown).
  8. Dip the slices of French bread into the egg mixture and fry in the saute pan on medium heat turning until both sides are nicely golden brown.
  9. Drain for a moment on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  10. Serve french toast sprinkled with a dusting of powdered sugar.
  11. Add a dollop of mascarpone cheese to each serving, and drizzle with orange syrup.
