From Mary Ann's Gilligan's Island Cookbook by Dawn Wells (Mary Ann herself), Ken Beck and Jim Clark. I got this cookbook in a swap and it's got some very humorous quotes and recipe titles. Did you know Mr. Howell once said, If it weren't for the money, I'd rather be poor. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
3 eggs, slightly beaten |
3/4 cup orange juice |
8 slices bread (firm-type) |
maple syrup, to serve |
Directions:
1. In a 15 x 10-inch jelly-role pan melt the butter in a 425 deg F oven.
2. Sprinkle the pan with mixture of sugar and cinnamon,.
3. In a shallow bowl mix the eggs and orange juice, and dip the bread slices in the mixture until well soaked but not falling apart.
4. Arrange close together in the prepared pan.
5. Bake at 425 deg F for 20 minutes, or until set.
6. With a pancake turner, invert the toast onto serving plates.
7. Serve with maple syrup.
8. Variations: For Sesame toast, sprinkle melted butter with 2 tablespoons sesame seeds.
