🧇 How To Make Gordon Ramsay French Toast

  1. Warm the oven up to 250°. Put the bread slices on a sheet pan and put it in the oven for no more than 15 minutes to dry out a bit while you get the other ingredients ready.
  2. Mix the milk, orange juice, vanilla, sugar, and salt with a whisk in a large, shallow bowl. Soak as many slices as you can in the egg mix for 4 to 5 minutes, turning them over once.
  3. In a very large sauté pan or grill set over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil.
  4. Put in the wet bread, and cook for two to three minutes on each side, until the bread is nicely browned. Don’t serve the French toast until it’s warm. Put it back on the sheet pan and keep it warm in the oven.
  5. Toss the rest of the wet bread slices in the oil and butter until they are all cooked.
  6. If you want, you can serve it hot with maple syrup, fresh fruit, and extra butter.
