Happy new year everyone!

What better way to start the new year than with a good breakfast. Something a bit cheeky to prevent the January blues while filling you up with much needed vitamins, following the Christmas splurge.

Served with refreshing orange slices, a few tangy pomegranate pops and a dollop of yogurt, these french toasts are just what the doctor’s ordered and will fit nicely into that much dreaded January detox.

This recipe has the added bonus of using that nibbled panettone which’s been sitting on your counter ever since you’ve received it from your parents or colleagues. In a one-on-one fight against a single person, the panettone always wins… Or it was before this recipe came along.

And it actually works best with slightly stale bread, so use it, you can thank me later.



-Orange supreme slices-

Follow the few steps shown above for juicy orange slices.

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

: Start by trimming the top and bottom of the orange off.: Sit the fruit on one end and carefully cut the rind off in strips by following the curve of the fruit.: Once the orange is peeled, lay it on one side and cut nice thick slices.

Mmmm, now I have another reason to wait for the weekend!
