Winter

I start this recipe with a high quality spiced tea, which creates a super flavorful foundation for the rest of the drink. I choose a cardamom cinnamon variety here, but any spiced tea will work! Next, I use the zest and juice from three different citrus fruits: lemons, for tang and acidity, oranges, for sweetness, and blood oranges, for color.

Today I show Kristin, beloved member of the Eitan Productions team and my personal assistant, how to make the most epic French toast ever! We start by simmering sweet and tart apples in warming spices to create the perfect filling, then stuff it inside of soft challah. It’s dipped in a creamy custard and griddled until GBAD (golden brown and delicious!), and served with a spiced whipped cream. Get ready to throw out any other French toast recipe!
