Eggnog French Toast Bake
Ingredients
- 1 french bread cubed
- 1/2 cup walnuts roughly chopped
- 8 large eggs whisked
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1 1/2 cups Irresistibles classic eggnog
- 1/2 cup Irresistibles pure maple syrup, plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
For serving powdered sugar
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 350°f.
Lightly grease a 9 by 12” baking dish (23 cm x 30,5 cm).
Place bread cubes in a baking dish & evenly scatter with walnuts. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, eggnog, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg & salt until well blended.
Pour mixture over the bread and press down slightly to flatten. If baking the next morning, wrap the baking dish in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake.
If baking immediately, bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the top is toasted and golden brown.
Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with maple syrup and serve!
