1 - pound loaf unsliced white bread
4 eggs
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier liqueur
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated orange peel (I use 2-3x that)
vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Powdered sugar
1 orange, thinly sliced (optional)
Slice bread into 8 3/4 inch slices. In medium bowl, beat eggs with milk, Grand Marnier, sugar, vanilla, salt and orange peel until well blended.
Dip each piece of bread into liquid mixture until well saturated. Place in a flat baking dish. Pour remaining liquid over bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight
In skillet, heat oil and sauté bread until golden on both sides. Brush with butter and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Tope with orange slice and serve immediately with maple syrup
