Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

Cranberry-Orange Sauce:

  • 1 ½ cups fresh cranberries

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ½ cup orange juice

French Toast:

  • 6 eggs

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ½ cup orange juice

  • ½ cup half-and-half

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 12 slices French bread

Directions

  1. Combine cranberries, water, sugar, and orange juice in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until cranberries soften and turn jammy, 20 to 25 minutes.

  2. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
