Ingredients

  • 75g Co-op unsalted butter, softened
  • 6 slices Co-op Irresistible Christmas sourdough, halved
  • 6 Co-op British free range eggs
  • 350ml Co-op semi-skimmed milk
  • 75g Co-op Fairtrade light brown soft sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Zest of ½ orange
  • 2 tsp icing sugar, to serve
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup, to serve

Method

  1. Rub the base of a 20cm-long oval baking dish with about a quarter of the butter
  2. Spread the rest on each of the slices of bread, then layer up in the dish — you may have to cut some slices to fill gaps
  3. Whisk the eggs with the milk, sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon and orange zest in a bowl or jug to combine, then pour over the bread slices. Cover with cling film, then transfer to the fridge to soak overnight
  4. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/Gas 6
  5. Bake the French toast for 45 mins, then remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly. Dust with icing sugar and divide between 6 bowls
  6. Drizzle with maple syrup to serve
