Orange Vanilla Grilled French Toast Recipe

This orange vanilla french toast on the grill recipe can get a little messy, but the char and smoke you get from the pellet grill makes it worth it. We recommend using slightly stale sourdough because the texture holds up on the grill best. You could also use brioche or Texas toast.

Ingredients

  • 8 slices day-old sourdough bread
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ C milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 TB sugar
  • ¼ tsp orange zest

Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients (other than bread) until it’s well blended.

Place the egg mixture in a shallow bowl. Preheat the Grilla to 350 degrees. Take the bowl to your Grilla with you. Soak the first piece of bread for about 5 seconds on each side, then place the soaked bread on the pellet grill. Keep adding slices of bread until they are all on.

Flip the first piece after 3 minutes. As you flip the done side up, you can dust with more fresh cinnamon and orange zest.

After another 2 to 3 minutes, the slice should be golden brown.

Remove the grilled toast from Grilla and serve with melted butter and warm maple syrup.

When Did the Crazy, Wonderful, Delicious Notion of French Toast Begin?

No one knows exactly who invented the idea of French toast, despite the fact that the name implies it was imported strictly from France. Honestly, whoever first came up with the idea was pretty clever. What they realized was that stale bread could not only be softened in a delicious way. It could be turned into an unforgettable dish.

Certainly, French toast has grown to take center stage in many households as an occasional treat. But with your Grilla smoker, you can easily make it a common occurrence.
