French toast with orange syrup

Preparation

1. French Toast (Torrijas)

   The day before we left the bar in the air to settle. And an hour before preparing the torrijas we cut the bread into 2-3 cm slices and leave them cut in the air so that they also settle.

    

2. We put in the glass the liter of milk, the sugar, the cinnamon stick cut in half, the lemon and orange peel. We program 20 minutes, temperature 90º, turn to the left, speed 2. 

3. We take a strainer and put the milk in a deep bowl and let it warm for about 10 minutes. We rinse the glass with a little water (it is not necessary to wash it because we are going to use it for the syrup).

   We introduce some slices of bread (I usually make them 3 by 3 or 4 by XNUMX). We leave them 5 minutes on one side and 5 minutes on the other side at least. Don't worry if you spend more than 5 minutes per face.

4. We prepare a baking tray with a rack on top and we place them there to drain (so we can take advantage of the milk that falls to add it again with the soaking milk).

5. We beat the egg on a plate and prepare a pan with sunflower oil over medium-high heat.

6. Take the torrija with a spatula and drain it a bit by pressing lightly with your hand. We batter it in egg with the help of our hands so that it is well impregnated on all sides and sides and we toss them into the pan.

7. We fry them for about 1 minute on each side over medium-high heat. We remove them to a plate with kitchen paper to absorb the excess oil and place them in a tray or tupper where we are going to store them.

   We finished preparing and frying all the torrijas.

8. Orange syrup

   We put the honey and the orange juice in the glass. If you are going to use tetra-brick juice the amount would be about 6-8 tablespoons.

   We program 5 minutes, temperature 90º, speed 2. We pour the syrup directly on the torrijas. We let them warm and cover them with a lid (if they are in a tupper) or with transparent film until they cool well and then we take them or store them in the fridge.
