Orange French Toast Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated orange zest
  • 8 slices of thick white bread

Directions:

  1. Place bread slices in a flat bottomed dish (a large casserole dish would be great for this.)
  2. Next up – whisk together the eggs, milk, orange juice, orange zest, vanilla, sugar, and cinnamon in another dish.
  3. Pour that combined egg mixture over the bread, and refrigerate until bread absorbs the liquid. This will be about 10 minutes.
  4. Now spray cooking spray in a large non-stick skillet. Heat over medium heat.
  5. Place soaked bread in the heated skillet. Cook on both sides, until golden, about 3 minutes per side.
  6. Place on a plate and drizzle with some syrup.
  7. Add whipped cream and more grated zest on top of your french toast, for an extra tasty treat.
  8. Finally enjoy your delicious Orange French Toast!
  9. Then repeat over and over again, for years to come!

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible.
