We discovered this breakfast dish at a little resturaunt called Brockton Villa, right on the coast in La Jolla. It is the chef's take on french toast and is dubbed, appropriately, Coast Toast. It is so delicious that we have made it our Christmas morning tradition, so I thought I'd share the recipe with all of you.
Coast Toast
1 loaf soft french bread (sliced)
1 qt. whipping cream
10 eggs
3/4 cup orange juice
1/2 cup sugar
a pinch of salt
2 TBS vanilla
2 TBS orange flavoring (I never have this so I substitute with orange juice concentrate)
Combine ingredients. Pour over bread slices. Cover and refridgerate for at least 1 hour.
Remove bread and discard liquid. Spread butter on flat grill.
Cook until golden brown, then bake at 450 degrees for 5-10 minutes until bread is puffed up like a souffle'. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!
