Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Eggnog
- 3 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 8 slices Thick-Cut Bread (Brioche or Challah preferred)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 0 Powdered Sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 0 Maple Syrup (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggnog, eggs, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 2
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 3
Add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter to the skillet and let it melt, swirling it around to coat the surface evenly.
Step 4
Dip a slice of bread into the eggnog mixture, allowing it to soak for about 5 seconds on each side. Let any excess mixture drip off before placing the bread onto the skillet.
Step 5
Cook the bread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 6
Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining slices of bread, adding the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 7
Once all slices are cooked, transfer them to a serving platter.
Step 8
If desired, dust the French toast with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Step 9
Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup and enjoy your holiday-inspired Eggnog French Toast!
