Instructions: Slice the loaf of french bread in 1/2" thick slices. In a bowl, combine eggs, milk, orange juice, rum or extract and beat together until well blended. Take a few bread slices and soak in milk mixture for 5 minutes turning once. Take each slice and coat with bread crumb mixture on all sides. Heat oil in frying pan. Use enough oil to fry bread slices comfortably turning bread slices once when golden brown. When golden brown on both sides, place bread slices on warm plate and put on low temperature in oven while frying the remaining slices. When frying is complete, dust slices with powdered sugar and serve with warm pecan or maple syrup.
