Steps:
- If you are using ciabatta bread - 8 slices is the maximum.
- In a saucepan, place the milk,sugar, zests, juices, vanilla and spices. Simmer for 5-7 minutes (it will start to smell amazing!).
- Cool the mix for 5 minutes.
- Add the bread all at once and leave it there to soak up all that goodness, allow a good 20 minutes.
- Beat the eggs in a seperate bowl and in batches, carefully coat the bread.
- In a large heavy based fry pan, add the butter (start with 2 tablespoons) and sizzle over a medium heat until fragrant.
- Add 6 - 8 slices of bread (depending on the size of your pan - don't over crowd it) and cook for 3-4 minutes each side. Add more butter for each batch you make.
- Repeat until all the bread has been fried.
- Place the bread on a plate and sprinkle with icing sugar and serve warm.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the custard mixture by half.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The Spanish French toast was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with the cinnamon.
