A DELICIOUS BRUNCH RECIPE: OVEN-BAKED BLUEBERRY & ORANGE FLAVORED FRENCH TOAST
A combination of Martha Stewart's recipes.
Ingredients
  • Unsalted butter, room temperature, for baking dish
  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • ⅓ sugar
  • 2½ tablespoons orange-flavored liqueur, such as Grand Marnier
  • 1 tablespoon sanding sugar, plus more for serving
  • Coarse salt
  • 1½ teaspoons finely grated orange zest plus 2 tablespoons of juice
  • 1¼ cups whole milk
  • 1 loaf brioche, cut into ½-inch slices
  • Confectioners' sugar and maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
  1. Butter a shallow 2-quart baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, and salt. Add in liqueur, orange zest and juice.
  2. Dip brioche in egg mixture, then arrange in dish, overlapping slightly. Pour remaining egg mixture over brioche, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand 30 minute or refrigerate up to overnight.
  3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Sprinkle blueberries in between and on top of the bread slices. Bake until puffed and custard is just set, 55 to 65 minutes (tent with foil if browning too quickly). Let cool 15 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving. Serve with warm maple syrup.
