    Directions

    For the syrup: Combine the sugar and orange juice in a medium high-sided saute pan over high heat and cook until caramelized, about 2 minutes; do not stir. Whisk in the butter and vanilla extract until melted. Stir in the oranges and zest.

    For the French toast: In a baking dish, whisk together the eggs, cream, milk, orange juice, vanilla extract, orange zest and salt until combined. Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture until completely soaked through, at least 15 seconds per side.

    Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil in in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until it begins to sizzle. Add 3 slices bread at a time and cook, turning once, until golden and crisp on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining bread.

    Serve the orange marmalade syrup over the French toast.

      I made this for Christmas Day Breakfast, served with scrambled eggs and bacon. I wowed the family!! I could not find the Brioche and had a little trouble with the syrup. BUT... it was still amazing! I broke a 50 year Christmas Morning family tradition to serve this... even modified it was a huge hit. Thanks to the reviewer for the tip to use Callah bread... I may be able to find that easier. Some decided to use powdered sugar as well... they said they were in heaven.

      This is delicious. My whole family loved it. My daughter does not like french toast, and she could not stop eating this.
