Directions
Baked French Toast with Cardamom and Marmalade, Great breakfast or brunch buffet dish , You didn’t fail me again, MEAN Fabulous! I buttered each slice of bread lightly with real butter then spread on the marmalade Even though the recipe was cut in half we still had quite a bit left over Very rich! Just before putting the casserole dish in the oven I spooned some of the custard mixture onto the edges of the bread slices to be certain that the french toast didn’t dry out while baking By cutting the recipe in half we had much of the citrus syrup left because a little goes a long way Be sure to whisk the citrus syrup well before serving as the ingredients tend to settle Next time I might add a drop or two of orange blossom water (or rose water, why not?) to the syrup I opted for the overnight soak hoping that the bread wouldn’t be a soggy mess by morning and fortunately it was not The French toast had a very subtle hint of cardamon so for me the next batch I make will have more since it is my favorite spice Thanks for sharing your recipe and making our New Year’s Day breakfast extra special CG, Great breakfast or brunch buffet dish
