France meets French Polynesia! Exotic coconut, banana and cinnamon island flavors complement the rich creamy, buttery, orange staples of the French countryside. This is an easy breakfast or brunch meal since it's all made the day before (the 12 hours passive cooking time is when it sits in the refrigerator overnight). Serve it directly from the baking dish...no syrup or butter needed!

HONEY-ORANGE BAKED FRENCH TOAST
I've seen other baked French Toast and other Orange French Toast recipes on the 'zaar, but I haven't seen any quite like this one. I got it from my sister. It is great to feed a larger group and can be made the night before. The orange and honey flavors meld very well in this nice French Toast. Even better, it doesn't need butter or syrup at the table.

Steps:
- MAKE HONEY SAUCE:.
- 1. Microwave: Measure honey into a small microwavable cup or bowl. Add cinnamon (you don't need to stir it in yet) and cut butter into chunks on top. Microwave honey and butter for about 60 seconds on medium (60-70% power). Stir until butter is completely melted.
- 2. Stovetop: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low to medium heat, then mix in honey and cinnamon, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
- PREPARE THE PAN:.
- 3. Lightly grease the sides of a 9x13 pan or baking dish. You may omit this step but it will help the slices come out neatly when serving.
- 4. Pour honey sauce into the 9x13 pan and tilt the pan around until sauce evenly covers bottom.
- PREPARE THE BREAD:.
- 5. Break eggs into a shallow dish (a pie pan works perfectly) and lightly beat with a fork to break the yolks. Add orange juice and beat thoroughly with a fork.
- 6. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, covering both sides. Allow any excess egg to run back into the dish. Place bread on sauce in pan, allowing slices to touch on all sides but not overlap one another.
- 7. Bake at 400 F for 15-20 minutes or until nicely golden.
- 8. "Cut" along the edges of the pan and between each slice of bread with a turner, then turn each slice out of the pan and onto a plate with the honey side on top. The honey sauce will have baked into the bread, but if there is any left in the pan spoon it on the top (it will be very thick).
- NOTES: You can also prepare up through step 6 the night before. Cover and refrigerate the dish, then bake in the morning. Be sure to use a metal pan and not glass or ceramic if you do this.
- It isn't as pretty, but I often use leftover hamburger or hotdog buns for this recipe. I prefer the "crust" side down in the honey, but my sweetie prefers the "cut" side down so that there is more texture.

- 8. Bake on middle rack in oven for 20 minutes. Do not turn slices over.
- 9. Remove from baking dishes, sprinkle with powdered sugar (if desired) and serve with a variety of syrups
Tips:
- Use a good quality bread. A hearty, thick-sliced bread will hold up well to the custard and won't get soggy. Some good options include French bread, brioche, or challah.
- Don't overmix the custard. Overmixing can make the custard tough. Just whisk the eggs, milk, and spices together until they are well combined.
- Soak the bread in the custard for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the bread to absorb the custard and become tender.
- Cook the French toast over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bread from burning.
- Flip the French toast only once. Flipping it too often can break up the bread.
- Serve the French toast immediately. It's best when it's hot and fresh out of the pan.
