People talking
This french toast has an orange flavor that goes well with any fruit syrup or maple syrup. Make sure to let the bread soak up enough of the egg mixture and to cook it long enough to heat through.

I don't always enjoy orange flavor in cooking, but here it was perfectly delicious. Served with pure maple syrup and bacon.

I really enjoyed this fabulous French Toast recipe. The citrus burst really made it special. I drizzled maple syrup on top, but I think it would be greated topped with orange marmalade or any fruit preserve for that matter. I couldn't find Cuban bread, so I used thick sliced Texas Toast bread, and it worked quite well for us. This something I would feel quite comfortable serving company for for a special occasion breakfast, because it looks so appetizing...and it is! Thanks for sharing your recipe, Chef Jean. Made for Fall 2011 PAC.
