How to Make Orange Cream French Toast
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1 teaspoon orange zest, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Cover the cream cheese mixture and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
- In the morning, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup milk in a shallow dish. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Slice day-old French bread into 1 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Carefully cut a pocket into the side of each bread slice and generously fill with the chilled orange cream cheese mixture.
- Dip each filled bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the French toast for 2-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh orange slices and a sprinkle of orange zest (optional).
