Provided by Ashley Manila

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup eggnog
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons bourbon (optional)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 loaf French bread, cut into 8 slices
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, if using frozen do not thaw
1 cup pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 teaspoons bourbon (more or less to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large bowl combine the eggnog, heavy cream, eggs, vanilla, bourbon (if using), nutmeg, and sugar; beat well and set aside. Arrange sliced bread in a large shallow bowl. Pour the liquid mixture over the bread, being sure every piece is soaked in the liquid. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). In a small saucepan over medium heat melt the butter. Remove from heat and whisk in the brown sugar and maple syrup. Spread this mixture evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan. Carefully arrange the soaked bread on top. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the bread is firm and lightly golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm!
  • Combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar with 1/4 cup of water in a medium saucepan. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a light simmer, stirring frequently, until sugar is completely dissolved, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the cranberries and stir to coat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cranberries to a wire rack and let dry for at least 30 minutes.
  • When the 30 minutes are up, roll the cranberries in remaining sugar, working in small batches and tossing until well coated. Set aside to dry for at least 1 hour.
  • In a medium-sized bowl combine the maple syrup, butter, bourbon, and vanilla. Drizzle over french toast right before serving.

OVERNIGHT EGGNOG FRENCH TOAST



Overnight Eggnog French Toast image

Delicious and so easy, it'll become a Christmas morning tradition! Needs no syrup. Whipped cream and sliced fruit like strawberries and bananas are great on top! Instead of eggnog, you can use whole milk and add a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, and a tablespoon of vanilla.

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST



Overnight French Toast image

If you have a crowd for breakfast, overnight French toast is a winning idea. Instead of standing over the stove, cooking slice after slice, it bakes in the oven and emerges puffed and golden and ready for a big glug of maple syrup. Try making it with a stale loaf that you forgot to eat amid all the other holiday goodies. A fat brioche, fruit-filled panettone or a braided challah all work well. Stay away from croissants, though: Their chewy interiors are best enjoyed fresh.

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for baking dish
1 pound enriched bread, such as brioche, challah or panettone sliced 3/4-inch thick
1/4 cup golden raisins (optional)
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup pecans, chopped (optional)
Confectioners' sugar for dusting (optional)
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Butter the front sides of the slices of bread and shingle the slices upright in the dish, overlapping as necessary. Nestle the raisins evenly between the slices of bread but not on top.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and salt until well combined. Pour the milk mixture over the bread and press the bread gently to absorb. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the top. Bake until puffed, golden and set in the center, 50 to 60 minutes. While baking, if the top begins to get too dark, tent with foil. Let stand 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with maple syrup.

EGGNOG OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST



Eggnog Overnight French Toast image

Like a good pitcher of eggnog, this French toast is rich, sweet, boozy and covered in nutmeg. Slicing the bread but keeping the base connected not only makes this an attractive breakfast centerpiece, it also feeds family and friends with little effort since all the servings bake simultaneously. Allowing it to soak in the refrigerator overnight deepens the dish's flavors. Don't worry about forcing the bread pieces apart when pouring in the soaking mixture: The loaf will flower naturally as it bakes. This dish is sweet enough to eat without a final drench in maple syrup, but it's great with a mountain of fresh, tart berries. A little homemade whipped cream wouldn't hurt either.

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16-ounce) day-old, plain country bread loaf (oblong or similarly shaped)
2 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon dark rum, brandy or bourbon
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
Freshly grated nutmeg, for dusting
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Have a rimmed dish or pan (about 1 inch deep) that fits the bread loaf snugly nearby. Using a serrated knife, slice a very thin layer (about 1/16 inch) off the bottom of the loaf to expose the surface for better batter absorption. Cut the top of the bread in 1 1/2-inch-thick slices, being sure not to cut all the way through and leaving about 1/2 inch of bread at the bottom uncut. Then turn the loaf 90 degrees and cut 1 1/2-inch slices in the other direction to make a grid-like pattern, again, not cutting all the way through. Transfer the cut loaf to the dish.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, cream, melted butter, rum, vanilla and salt until well combined. Slowly pour the batter into the loaf beginning in the center. Gently peel back all the pieces to drench every crevice and the top of the loaf with the batter. Allow to soak for 30 minutes at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate up to overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Spoon any excess batter that has pooled into the dish back into the loaf and over any dry patches of bread. Carefully transfer the loaf to the lined baking sheet, and bake until the loaf is deeply golden brown on top and the custard has set, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and dust with the nutmeg and confectioners' sugar. Serve immediately.

OVERNIGHT EGGNOG FRENCH TOAST



Overnight Eggnog French Toast image

I make this at the holidays and love the fact that it can be made ahead of time and frozen, then just pulled out and baked when needed.

Provided by Kellie in SLO

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 24 slices

Number Of Ingredients 8

9 eggs
3 cups half-and-half or 3 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons rum extract
24 slices French bread (3/4 inch thick)
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Grease two 15x10 inch baking pans.
  • In a large bowl combine the eggs, half-and-half, sugar, nutmeg, vanilla and rum extract.
  • Beat until well blended Arrange bread slices in greased baking pans.
  • Pour egg mixture over the bread in the pans.
  • Lift and move bread slices until all egg mixture is absorbed.
  • Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight or freeze up to 1 week.
  • Heat oven to 500 degrees.
  • Remove pans from refrigerator or freezer (do not thaw).
  • Remove foil.
  • Bake one pan at a time for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • NOTE: You can bake both pans at the same time, but be sure to switch the pans in the over halfway through the baking time.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients: The freshest and highest-quality ingredients will yield the best-tasting French toast. Fresh eggs, heavy cream, and real vanilla extract are key.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the French toast tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a heavy skillet: A heavy skillet will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the French toast from burning.
  • Cook the French toast over medium heat: Medium heat will help to cook the French toast evenly without burning it.
  • Flip the French toast only once: Flipping the French toast too often will make it break. Flip it only once, when the bottom is golden brown.
  • Serve the French toast immediately: French toast is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy. You can top it with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, powdered sugar, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Overnight Eggnog Baked French Toast is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It is perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that everyone will love.
