Recipe Introduction


Croissant French Toast, #85136
originator's comments:
I got this recipe from my grandma. I love to make this when
we have company, its easy but they think I worked very
hard on it.
others comments:
This is a wonderful recipe!!! I used regular orange juice,
because I didn't have Triple Sec, and the results were great!
The orange zest and juice make this a very bright, springtime
recipe that I will make many times in the future. I sprinkled
the croissants with powdered sugar, and put orange slices
for garnish, and my plate looked like it came from a fancy
restaraunt--very impressive looking, and even better tasting!!
Thanks

List of Ingredients




Croissant French Toast

5 eggs
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup triple sec
2 tablespoons sugar
1 finely grated orange, zest of
2 teaspoons cinnamon
6 day old plain croissants, cut in half length-wise
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
confectioners' sugar

Beat eggs and cream together, add triple sec, granulated sugar, orange zest
and cinnamon and wisk together.
Pour into a shallow bowl or pie plate.
Dip each croissant half in mixture, turning once.
Melt a few tablespoons of butter in skillet over medium heat, add as many
croissant halves that will fit and fry until golden brown, repeat with any
remaining croissants.
Put on plate and spinkle with powdered sugar, I also like to add a slice or
two of oranges to each plate.
Syrup and butter is optional, I like it with both, but my mom eats it
plain.
