Create a festive and delicious Christmas morning French toast with this eggnog-infused recipe. It’s a warm and comforting way to start your holiday celebration.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 thick slices of challah or brioche bread
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups eggnog
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter for cooking
  • Optional toppings: maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh berries, powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, eggnog, milk, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the eggnog mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Let the bread soak for about 30 seconds per side.
  3. Melt a tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet or on a griddle over medium heat.
  4. Place the eggnog-soaked bread slices onto the hot skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
  5. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Repeat with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter as needed.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Using thicker bread slices like challah or brioche will help them absorb the eggnog mixture without becoming too soggy.
  • Adjust the amount of cinnamon and nutmeg to your preference.
  • For an extra festive touch, you can add a splash of rum or brandy to the eggnog mixture.
