How To Make orange french toast with pecan sauce

• 
  Step 1
  Add the sugar and water in a sauce pan over medium high heat.
• 
  Step 2
  Do not stir the sugar, but swirl occasionally until it turns amber in color - about 10 minutes.
• 
  Step 3
  Remove from the heat and carefully stir in the heavy cream.
• 
  Step 4
  Once incorporated, return to heat and stir in the pecans until smooth.
• 
  Step 5
  Whisk in remaining ingredients.
• 
  Step 6
  Remove from heat allowing it to cool.
• 
  Step 7
  Whisk the eggs and sugar together.
• 
  Step 8
  Add remaining ingredients except butter and whisk vigorously until well blended.
• 
  Step 9
  Heat a non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Dip bread slices two at a time into the egg mixture, allowing both sides to soak without becoming completely saturated. Using 1/2 tablespoon of butter for each slice, saute until browned well on both sides. Wipe out skillet and repeat with remainder of bread.
• 
  Step 10
  Place browned slices directly on the oven grate, preheated to 300 degrees F to finish cooking as you prep the pecan sauce.
• 
  Step 11
  Plate the french toast and spoon the pecan sauce (in place of syrup) over it.
