Blood Orange French Toast

Ingredients

• 1 cup Half & Half

• 4-5 Tbsp Blood Orange Olive Oil divided

• 3 Eggs

• 2 Tbsp Sugar & Spice Dipper

• 1/4 tsp Sea Salt (Vanilla Bean or Sel Gris)

• 1/2 Italian Baguette sliced into 8-10 ½” thick pieces

• Berries or Fresh Fruit for garnish

Instructions

1. In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the half-and-half, 1 Tbsp blood orange olive oil, eggs, sugar and spice, and salt.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with the remaining blood orange olive oil.

3. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, allowing to soak for 15 seconds per side.

4. In batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, place each slice of soaked bread into the hot pan, cooking until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Keep warm in the oven or tented with foil while you finish cooking the others.

5. Arrange on a pan, dust with powdered sugar, a sprinkle of sugar & spice dipper, and serve with fruit. For a super gourmet touch, try a drizzle of balsamic glaze!
