I am a big believer in the expression «less is more» or, as I prefer to say it «how to turn a simple/ordinary/common recipe into something original ?» This expression perfectly applies to this Orange French Toast recipe I love… and mostly can eat since it is milk free !! It can also easily be gluten-free! Enjoy as much as I do ! * Recipe inspired from: Jan Main, «Recettes sans lactose: 200 savoureuses recettes santé» «200 best Lactose-Free recipes»), Modus Vivendi, 2006 *
