Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, orange zest, vanilla, honey, and salt. Slice the challah in 3/4-inch thick slices. Soak as many slices in the egg mixture as possible for 5 minutes, turning once.
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a very large saute pan over medium heat. Add the soaked bread and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until nicely browned. Place the cooked French toast on a sheet pan and keep it warm in the oven. Fry the remaining soaked bread slices, adding butter and oil as needed, until it's all cooked. Serve hot with maple syrup, raspberry preserves, and/or confectioners' sugar.

THE BEST FRENCH TOAST
There's no question that this is the best French toast recipe. The caramelized exterior meets a soft, custardlike center that practically melts in your mouth. Not only that, but it's quick and easy, too! -Audrey Rompon, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Leave the oven on.
- Combine the heavy cream and eggs in a bowl and whisk to thoroughly blend. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Soak the bread in the mixture for 15 minutes, then turn the slices over and soak for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
- Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the canola oil. Once the oil is hot (it will shimmer slightly), fry the challah slices on each side until golden brown, working in batches. Transfer the challah to a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake until the custard is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes; the bread should soufflé, or puff up. Remove from the oven, cover each slice with grated cheese, and return the pan to the oven to melt the cheese. Once the cheese is melted, about 4 minutes, remove from the oven. Put 2 slices bacon and 2 slices tomato on each slice of challah and drizzle with some of the vinaigrette. Toss the arugula with the remaining dressing (or enough to coat) and place atop each piece. Serve warm.
FRENCH TOAST BLTS
This savory take on French toast was inspired by one from Martha Stewart. For my version, I add Parmesan cheese to the batter and cut the brioche in half to make the sandwiches more petite and irresistible. It's an amazing combination with bacon, lettuce and tomato. Try it for breakfast or for your next brunch gathering.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden and crisp. Drain the bacon on paper towels. Decrease the oven temperature to 200 degrees F.
- While the bacon cooks, lay the bread in a single layer in a large shallow dish.
- Whisk together the eggs, milk, chives, Parmesan, and flour in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over the bread and soak 20 to 30 minutes, flipping the bread halfway through.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it sizzles. Working in batches if necessary, add the bread in a single layer and cook until golden and crisp around the edges, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the French toast to an ovenproof plate and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
- To serve, sandwich the tomatoes, lettuce, and bacon between the slices of French toast.
