1-2 Medium French Baguettes or loaves; ends discarded and loaves cut
diagonally in 3/4 in. slices
4 large eggs
1/2 cup premium vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
Blueberry & pure maple syrup
Spread out the bread slices in a non-reactive dish. In a medium bowl, mix
eggs, ice cream, orange juice, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour over
bread slices and let it sit until you are ready. I have left it overnight,
covered in the refrigerator and it was fine. Heat your griddle, melt a
small amount of butter and add the soaked bread. Cook until brown on one
side, turn and cook about 2 minutes. Transfer to plates and cover with
berries of your choice or sometimes I use apple slices cooked with butter,
brown sugar and cinnamon. If I use berries, I pour heated blueberry
syrup and maple syrup on top and then top with lemon zest. Enjoy!!
