This is a gorgeous recipe for French toast. The last time I made this we had a tradesman over trying to work out a pesky fault with our phone that had necessitated many callouts. This was the tradesman that fixed the problem ;-).

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 for Perfect Freezer Orange French Toast
- Use fresh, juicy oranges. This will give your French toast the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use frozen or canned orange juice concentrate. Just be sure to thaw the frozen juice concentrate before using.
- Don't over-soak the bread. If you soak the bread for too long, it will become soggy and fall apart. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture for just a few seconds, then immediately transfer it to the skillet.
- Cook the French toast over medium heat. This will help prevent the French toast from burning. Cook the French toast for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the French toast immediately. French toast is best served fresh out of the skillet. You can top the French toast with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion
Freezer orange French toast is a delicious and easy breakfast option that can be made ahead of time. Simply follow the tips above to make sure your French toast turns out perfect. You can enjoy this tasty breakfast all week long!
