Ingredients

1 loaf French bread

12 slices Swiss cheese

Thinly sliced ham

4 eggs, beaten

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

Orange Glaze Topping

1/2 cup cold water

4 teaspoons cornstarch

1/2 teaspoon shredded orange peel

1 cup orange juice

2 Tablespoons honey

Instructions:

This is really easy to do and is a great version of French toast for those who aren’t really fond of sweet things for breakfast.

Grease a baking dish and cut bread into twelve 1-inch thick slices. Cut a pocket into each slice by cutting down the middle, but not all the way through. Fill each pocket with a slice of cheese and 2 slices of ham. In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, and vanilla. Dip the bread into the mixture, coating both sides. Place on the prepared dish (I use a jelly roll pan) and bake in a 450-degree oven for 8 minutes. Turn the slices over and bake for 7 more minutes or until lightly golden.

Orange Glaze Topping: Dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water. Combine water with orange peel, orange juice, and honey in a saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until thickened, stirring frequently. Spoon over Ham and Swiss Toast.
