CRUNCHY ORANGE FRENCH TOAST



Crunchy Orange French Toast image

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 orange
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 cups cornflakes, crumbled
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 loaf challah, cut into 1-inch-thick slices
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup warm maple syrup
Ground cinnamon, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack. Heat a griddle pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Zest the orange and set aside. Working over a medium bowl, segment the orange; squeeze the juice from the remaining orange membranes.
  • Whisk the eggs, orange zest, milk, cinnamon and orange juice in a baking dish or shallow bowl. Add the cornflakes and bacon to another baking dish and toss together. Dip the bread slices in the egg mixture and let them soak for 1 minute.
  • While the bread is soaking, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter on the griddle pan or skillet.
  • Working with one slice of bread at a time, let the excess egg mixture drip off and then dredge the bread in the cornflake mixture. Add the bread to the griddle, carefully placing as many slices of bread as can comfortably fit without touching too much (it's OK if the edges need to touch a little). You can dredge the bread, transfer it to an unlined baking sheet and hold for 5 minutes while one batch is cooking.
  • Cook on one side, rotating occasionally, until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until it is equally browned, another 2 minutes. Transfer the slices to the prepared baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you complete the next batches. Repeat the cooking process, melting 2 tablespoons of butter for each batch.
  • When all of the French toast is cooked and you are ready to serve, gently stir together the maple syrup and orange segments, making sure not to break up the segments. Spoon the syrup over the French toast and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of nuts for different textures and flavors. Try almonds, walnuts, pecans, cashews, or pistachios.
  • Toast the nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. This will enhance their flavor and make them crispier.
  • Make sure the sugar mixture is completely dissolved before adding the nuts. This will help prevent the nuts from clumping together.
  • Stir the nuts constantly while they are cooking in the sugar mixture. This will help prevent them from burning.
  • Spread the nuts out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to cool. This will help prevent them from sticking together.
  • Store the nuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

These crunchy orange cardamom spiced nuts are a delicious and easy snack that can be enjoyed on their own or added to yogurt, oatmeal, or trail mix. They are also a great gift for friends and family, and perfect for any occasion. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give these nuts a try!
