Steps:
- You can soak this overnight but the texture will be more like a soufflé. If you do it 30 minutes before baking, it's a bit crunchier. But both techniques work well. You want the baguette to be stale but not as hard a a rock. You could save scraps in the freezer for a few weeks until you have enough for this dish. Preheat oven to 375°F. Trim 1/2 inch off of each end of the baguette and feed scraps to the dog. Slice baguette in half. Cut into serving-size pieces (4-5" long). Place bread cut-side up in an ovenproof dish and butter the top of each piece. Don't overlap the pieces. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the eggs. Add milk, vanilla extract, orange juice/zest, and salt. Whisk until foamy. Pour over bread. Flip the pieces around every 10 minutes or so to make sure both sides are soaking up the liquid . Leave in the liquid for about 30 minutes total. You want the bread to be wet but not soggy and falling apart. When you bake it, the bread should be resting in a small pool of the liquid but not drowning in it. You might need to pour off a few tablespoons of the liquid if the bread doesn't soak most of it up. Make sure all pieces are cut-side up. Sprinkle turbinado sugar all over the top. Bake until the bread is puffed up and golden (30-40 minutes). You might need to throw it under the broiler for optimum crispy crunchy caramelized beauty. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and eat right away (but it does reheat nicely). Serve with optional toppings listed above.

Tips for Making Perfect Baguette Toast:
- Choose the Right Baguette: Opt for a fresh, crusty baguette with a golden-brown color. Avoid baguettes that are too soft or have a pale crust.
- Slice the Baguette Correctly: Cut the baguette into even slices, about 1-1.5 inches thick. Make sure to slice it just before toasting to maintain its freshness.
- Toast to Perfection: Toast the baguette slices in a toaster or toaster oven until they reach your desired level of doneness. For a light toast, toast for 1-2 minutes; for a medium toast, toast for 2-3 minutes; and for a dark toast, toast for 3-4 minutes.
- Add Flavorful Toppings: Experiment with a variety of toppings to create delicious and flavorful baguette toasts. Classic options include butter, jam, and honey. You can also try savory toppings like avocado, tomatoes, and cheese.
- Elevate Your Dish: To make your baguette toast even more special, consider adding additional ingredients. For a sweet treat, try adding slices of fruit or a drizzle of chocolate. For a savory twist, add a sprinkle of herbs or a dollop of pesto.
Conclusion:
Baguette toast is a versatile and delicious breakfast, lunch, or snack option that can be easily customized to suit your taste preferences. With its crispy exterior and soft interior, baguette toast serves as the perfect base for a wide range of toppings, both sweet and savory. Whether you prefer a simple buttered toast or a more elaborate creation, the possibilities are endless. So, next time you're looking for a quick and satisfying meal, grab a baguette and start experimenting with different flavor combinations to create your own perfect baguette toast.
