Specialty Recipe

Orange Pecan French Toast

Ingredients

6 eggs

3/4 cup orange juice

1/2 cup half-and-half

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 loaf good bakery bread (or cinnamon bread)

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup pecan pieces

Cut bread into six one-inch pieces, and then cut diagonally.

Whisk together eggs, orange juice, milk, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Place bread in a single layer in a casserole or jelly roll pan that just fits the slices. Pour the egg mixture over slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning once.

Pour the melted butter in a jelly roll pan, spreading evenly. Arrange the bread slices on the pan in a single layer. Sprinkle with pecans. Bake at 400 degrees until golden, 20-25 minutes. Serve with syrup.
