Orange French Toast

bread

eggs

half and half

sugar

vanilla

orange zest (you need 2 large navel oranges

walnuts (optional)

craisins (optional)

cream cheese (softened)

orange zest

orange marmalade

orange juice

Make orange cream cheese.  Using an electric or stand mixer, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, ¾ teaspoon orange zest, and ½ teaspoon vanilla.  Transfer to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate or set aside while you make the French toast.

Make the orange sauce.  Whisk together the orange marmalade and orange juice in a small bowl.  Set aside.

Preheat.  Preheat an electric griddle to 350℉ a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Make egg mixture.  In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, half and half, granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and ½ teaspoon orange zest.  Grease the griddle or skillet with cooking spray or butter.  Dip French toast one at a time into the egg mixture and turn so both sides are entirely dredged.

Cook.  Place French toast on the preheated griddle or skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until each side turns golden brown.

Keep warm.  Remove from the skillet or griddle and place on a large cookie sheet while you cook the other French toast pieces.  To keep the French toast warm, you can keep it in a 200℉ oven.

Serve.  Spread the cream cheese over a slice of French toast and top with the orange sauce.  Garnish with chopped walnuts and craisins if desired.
