How to Make Baked Orange French Toast

Baked orange French toast is delicious and is made using fresh orange juice. If you have the time to squeeze your own juice, this will be even more delectable!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
• 2 large egg whites
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 6 slices day old French bread - cut 1 inch thick
• 1 tbsp powdered sugar (caster sugar)
• 1 medium orange, peeled and cut into 6 wedges

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare the cookie sheet in advance by laying baking paper over it, or using a non-stick spray or oil/butter.
2. In a large bowl, pour the orange juice, vanilla and egg whites. Beat together.
3. Take the bread slices and dip on both sides. Lay on the cookie sheet once dipped.
4. When all bread slices are dipped and are laying on the cookie sheet, pour the remaining juice mixture evenly over the slices.
5. Place in the oven. Back for 15 to 17 minutes, or until golden brown. It is important to turn them over halfway through, at about 8 minutes.
6. Remove from the oven and serve hot. Add the powdered sugar and orange wedges prior to serving.
