Steps for Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs and 2 large egg yolks until fully blended.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of Florida’s Natural® No-Pulp Orange Juice, 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, and a pinch of kosher salt. Heat over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
- Gradually pour about a quarter of the warm orange mixture into the egg mixture, whisking gently to temper the eggs.
- Continue to cook the combined custard mixture over medium heat, stirring until it thickens, about 6-8 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 200°F and place a baking sheet inside.
- Dip each slice of bread into the cooled orange custard, soaking for 30 seconds on each side.
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat; cook soaked bread slices for about 3 minutes on each side.
- Transfer cooked slices to the warm baking sheet in the oven.
- Dust the cooked toast with powdered sugar, sprinkle with orange zest, and top with supreme orange segments and maple syrup if desired.

Notes
Make the custard a day in advance and refrigerate overnight for enhanced flavor. Always strain the custard after cooking for a velvety texture.
