French Toast with Orange Zest

Today I’m going to show you how to make French Toast in the easiest and most delicious way!

This French Toast recipe is spruced up with fresh zest from Riverside’s famous oranges.

This has been my favorite French Toast recipe since I got out of culinary school, and I’ve never strayed from this version.

What makes this recipe for French toast special is the addition of real Riverside Navel Orange zest, but you can use any oranges you have in your market.
