From remittancegirl 16 years agoIngredients
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 1 Tbsp milk shopping list
- 1 Pinch of salt shopping list
- 8 diagonally sliced rounds of french baguette, shopping list
- 2 Tbsp of orange zest shopping list
- 2 Tbsp of Grand Marnier or Cointreau shopping list
- 4 Tbsp of orange juice shopping list
- 1 tsp of lemon zest shopping list
- 1 Tbsp powdered sugar shopping list
- 1 tin of Lyle's golden syrup (Or 1 1/2 cups of regular pancake syrup) shopping list
- 4 Tbsp of mascarpone cheese (You could use sour cream as a lower fat substitute) shopping list
- 1 tsp butter shopping list
- 2 tsp vegetable oil for frying shopping list
How to make it
- In a small saucepan, add syrup, 1 Tbsp of orange zest, 1 tsp of lemon zest and the 4 Tbsp of orange juice
- 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.
- Add the liquor, stir, and take the pan off the heat
- Strain the mixture into a serving jug.
- In a bowl, add the eggs, milk, salt and the remainder of the orange zest.
- Beat the eggs until well mixed.
- 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).
- 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.
- Drain for a moment on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serve french toast sprinkled with a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Add a dollop of mascarpone cheese to each serving, and drizzle with orange syrup.
