Grand Marnier French Toast is a twist on an American Favorite Breakfast treat. Many ingredients in the batter are what you would expect however the surprise of the Grand Marnier liqueur is what takes this breakfast to a new level. Another twist is that we offer our guests the option to have this breakfast made with three different types of bread. There is the French Toast bread which is made with maple syrup and brown sugar baked in or the Apple Fritter which has small slice or apple baked in or the Blueberry Struedel with blueberries baked in. Some guests are daring and try one slice of one bread and another slice of a different bread. We hope you enjoy this recipe.
