6 eggs
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
Butter or margarine
12 white bread slices, cut in half
1 (10 ounce) jar orange marmalade

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Into pie plate or shallow baking dish, grate orange to make 1 tablespoon grated peel. Into measuring cup, squeeze juice from orange; add 1/3 cup juice to orange peel with eggs and cardamom; with fork or wire whisk, beat until mixed.
