Key Lime Croissant French Toast

This is a recipe that's a great way to spice up your traditional French Toast!

Ingredients for Croissant Mixture:

5 Eggs
1/8 Cup of Key Lime Juice ( I use the Nellie & Joes Key West Lime Juice)
2 Teaspoons of Nutmeg (I substitute vanilla sometimes)
1/4 Cup of Milk
3/4 Cup of Orange Juice
Large Croissants (Sliced)

*This mixture is enough for about 4 large whole croissants. If you like lime, you can add more than 1/8 of a cup. The first time I made this I used 1/4 of lime juice and it was pretty strong.

Ingredients for Key Lime Butter:
1/2 cup of Spreadable Butter or Margarine
4 Tablespoons of Powdered Sugar
1/8 Teaspoon of Key Lime Juice








Directions:
1: Mix Eggs with key lime juice, nutmeg, milk and orange juice with a whisk until bell blended.

2. Dip sliced croissant until fully coated with mixture
3. Cook on griddle or stove stop until golden brown/egg mixture is fully cooked (like you would when cooking regular French toast).

Directions to make Key Lime Butter:
1. Mix together butter, key lime juice and powdered sugar together to use as a spread on top of French toast.  It should look like a whipped butter.

Serve! The butter is sweet so you may not even need to use syrup!
