Time 12h45m

Number Of Ingredients 26

FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE
1 1/2 c whole milk
1 1/2 c heavy cream
8 large eggs
1 Tbsp dark brown sugar
1 tsp lightly packed fresh orange zest
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp coarse sea salt
12 (1-inch thick) slices sweet brioche or 16 (1/2-inch) baguette slices
butter or nonstick cooking spray
DARK CHOCOLATE ORANGE BUTTER
4 oz dark chocolate chips
1 1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1/2 tsp instant espresso powder
2 Tbsp orange liqueur
1 Tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed [may use 3 tablespoons if not using liqueur]
1 Tbsp fresh grated orange zest
1 lb unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
CINNAMON-ORANGE SYRUP
3/4 c water
1/4 c fresh orange juice
1 Tbsp fresh grated orange zest
1 c packed dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp heavy cream
1 tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. French Toast In mixing bowl of stand mixer, whisk together milk, eggs, sugar, orange zest, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until eggs are broken up and evenly combined. Generously butter or spray with nonstick cooking spray a nonstick 9"X13" baking dish. Place bread slices in baking pan in two rows, overlapping slices a bit. Pour egg mixture over bread slices, ensuring even coverage. Spoon some of the mixture in between bread slices. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, preheat oven to 350°F. Dot top with 3 or 4 tablespoons cubed Dark Chocolate Orange Butter. Bake for 45 minutes, or just until puffed and slightly golden. Cut into squares and serve with additional Dark Chocolate Orange Butter and Cinnamon-Orange Syrup.
  • 2. Dark Chocolate Orange Butter Place chocolate chips in small heatproof nonmetal mixing bowl and place in microwave. Melt chips, stirring halfway through cooking time, on medium to medium high power for 45 seconds, or just until chips are sufficiently softened to be blendable [be careful not to overheat or burn]. Remove from microwave and place melted chocolate in stand mixer mixing bowl. Use the whisk attachment to whisk in powdered sugar, espresso powder, orange liquor, and orange juice concentrate until smooth. Add butter and orange zest; stir until thoroughly combined. Divide mixture equally between two pieces of parchment paper (6" X 8"). Roll parchment into log shapes and twist ends to secure. Wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate until firm, about two hours (or you can place logs in the freezer for 30 minutes). Slice into thin rounds as needed. (This recipe can be prepared several days in advance. Keep frozen or refrigerated. Thaw at room temperature before serving. This recipe would also be great for grilled or broiled fruit or as a topping for pancakes, waffles, and toast.)
  • 3. Cinnamon-Orange Syrup Combine water, orange juice, orange zest and brown sugar in a heavy medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Boil until the syrup reduces to 1 cup, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cream and cinnamon. Keep the syrup warm. (The syrup can be made 1 day ahead. Cool, then cover and refrigerate. Re-warm before serving.)

Tips:

- Use thick slices of bread for a sturdy French toast that can hold up to the orange-cinnamon syrup. - If you don't have orange zest, you can use 1 teaspoon of orange extract. - For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk. - If you like your French toast crispy, cook it for a few minutes longer on each side. - Serve the French toast immediately with orange-cinnamon syrup, butter, and powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

Orange-cinnamon French toast is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. With its zesty orange flavor and warm cinnamon spice, this French toast is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
