Ingredients 

  • 8-10 slices of bread
  • 4 extra large eggs
  • 1 cup eggnog
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 tbsp butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250°.
  • Add eggs, eggnog, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a shallow dish and whisk until completely combined.
  • Place a pat of butter into a skillet to melt.
  • Dip the bread into the egg mixture for about 10-15 seconds per side, pressing down slightly so that the slices soak up the liquid.
  • Working in batches, add 2-3 slices of bread to the melted butter in the skillet.
  • Cook on medium-low heat until each side of the bread is toasty and brown.
  • Place cooked slices of french toast on a small cookie sheet or piece of foil and place them in the preheated oven to stay warm.
  • Serve with butter, sour cream, cranberry syrup, and granola.

Notes

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
  • For best results in making any type of french toast, leave the bread out on the countertop for 3-6 hours or overnight.
  • The egg to liquid ratio is important when making french toast so follow the recipe closely for best results.
  • Seasoning makes a difference when making french toast - be sure to add the vanilla extract and warm seasonal spices.
  • We love our french toast with sour cream and granola. The sour cream adds a bit of tanginess and the granola gives it a little crunch.
