Orange French Toast

A few years ago, at the age of 50, I decided to teach myself to cook. I made this French toast that my mother would serve with grilled ham and sweet warm maple syrup. I was so pleased with the results, I've been cooking ever since!

    This was easy and delicious... I used panettone bread and it was delicious w/the orange flavor, and maple syrup.
