Orange French Toast with Orange Apple Syrup

We made this for breakfast this morning. It's perfect for a cold winter morning!

Toast:
4 eggs
1/2 c. OJ
1/4 c. milk
1 t. vanilla
1/4 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. nutmeg
6-8 slices bread

Syrup:
3/4 c. OJ
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 apple, diced
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. ginger
1 orange, cut into segments

Directions for Syrup:
Cook OJ & sugar on medium heat until bubbly. Add the apple, cinnamon & ginger. Cook until apple is tender & syrup is thickened. Stir in orange segments off the heat.

**You can soak the french toast the night before and bake it as a strata. 400 degrees until golden brown. (I haven't done it this way for a long time, so I can't remember how long it takes)**
