A delightful twist on traditional French toast, baked to perfection with a hint of citrus and warm spices.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated to ensure even baking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and orange zest until well combined.
Whisk thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Arrange the bread slices in a single layer, slightly overlapping, in a greased baking dish.
Use slightly stale bread for better absorption of the custard.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread slices, ensuring they are well soaked but not submerged.
Press the bread gently to help it absorb the custard.
Dot the top of the bread with small pieces of butter.
This will help create a golden, crispy top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
Check the dish halfway through to ensure even baking.
Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Add fresh fruit on the side for a colorful presentation.
