Torrijas - Spanish French toast
Report
Spain's version of French toast is comfortingly soft inside and gently crisp on the outside. So delicious!

Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 trip orange zest
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 6 lices baguette more if thin, less if using larger-sliced bread, ideally a day or two old
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or more, as needed
To serve
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Warm the milk with the cinnamon, orange strip and sugar in a small pan over a medium-low heat. Stir now and then to dissolve the sugar and bring it to just about simmering, then turn off the heat. Let it sit a minute to infuse while you slice the bread.
- Put the slices of bread in the bottom of a dish then pour over the warm milk. Leave it to absorb the milk, turning as needed.
- Whisk the egg in a dish big enough to fit a piece of bread in.
- Warm the oil in a medium-large skillet/frying pan over a medium-high heat. Gently press any excess milk out of the bread and then dip one slice at a time in the egg to coat then put into the pan. Fry up to 3 slices at a time, as fits, until golden brown on either side. Drain on kitchen paper once cooked to remove excess oil.
- Stir together the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle some over the cooked torrijas to serve.
