Instructions

1 In a casserole dish large enough to fit 3-4 slices of bread, whisk together the
4 eggs, milk, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract.
(Alternatively, you can whisk this all together in a large bowl & then pour into
the casserole dish).
2 Add as many slices of sourdough bread as you can fit without stacking. Let the
sourdough bread soak about 2-3 minutes, and then flip to the other side and
repeat.
3 If your bread is particularly hearty and stiff, you might need to let it soak an
additional minute per side to really make sure the bread is absorbing the egg
mixture like a sponge.
4 When the French toast is done soaking, heat a griddle pan that crosses over two
burners on low-medium heat. Drop two tbsp of the butter onto the griddle and
melt all over the pan evenly.
5 Now, take the French toast slices out of the pan, letting the excess custard
drip back into the dish. Then add it to the griddle. Repeat with the rest of the
slices, and then add your remaining bread to the casserole dish to soak.
6 Cook each French toast slice for 2-3 minutes per side before flipping. The
French toast should be golden brown.
7 Keep the first batch of slices warm on a plate covered with foil while you wait
for the second batch.
8 You could serve French Toast with butter and syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit,
chocolate spread, peanut butter, or anything else you might like!
