For french toast
1 1/4 cups orange marmalade
10 4 x 4 x 1-inch-thick slices egg bread
1 1/4 cups whole milk
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar
3 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Make french toast:

  • Whisk milk and next 7 ingredients in large bowl. Pour custard over bread. Let bread stand 1 hour, basting occasionally, or cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Make citrus syrup:
  • Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves. Let stand at least 1 hour. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake French toast, uncovered, until puffed and golden brown, about 50 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar; serve with citrus syrup.
