Overnight Eggnog French Toast Recipes

EGGNOG FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Whisk the eggs in a medium mixing bowl. Pour in the eggnog and whisk in pinches of salt and nutmeg. Set aside. Butter a baking dish, then cut the bread into 1 1/2-inch slices. Dip the bread into the eggnog mixture, making sure it absorbs the liquid, and place in the baking dish. It's okay to cut a few slices in half so they fit into the smaller spaces.
• Sprinkle with another pinch of nutmeg, then build another layer of French toast. Pour the remaining liquid over the casserole, lightly pressing down to ensure all of the bread has soaked up the liquid. (At this point, the French toast can be covered and refrigerated overnight, if you like.) Bake 1 hour, rotating the pan after 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
• Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold.

EGGNOG OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST

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.

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Whisk in the half-and-half, eggnog, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, the cinnamon and salt.

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the turbinado sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg in a small bowl. Uncover the challah and sprinkle with the sugar mixture. Bake until browned and puffed, 35 to 40 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve with whipped cream and/or syrup.
