ingredients
24 eggs
2 2/3 cups orange juice
1 1/3 half and half
3/4 cup Grand Marnier
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup orange zest
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
18 slightly stale croissants, sliced in half horizontally
directions
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, orange juice, Grand Marnier, sugar, orange zest, vanilla, and nutmeg until uniform in color.
Heat a griddle over medium heat. Add butter as needed to keep it greased.
Dip each croissant half in the batter, coating completely but not letting it soak in the mixture. Place each half on the heated griddle, cut-side up. Cook until browned then flip over and cook the other side until browned.
Serve hot with warm syrup or other desired toppings.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
