This fluffy eggnog French toast is full of holiday flavor! Made with thick-cut bread, warm spices, and a splash of rum—perfect for a festive breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

1 loaf French bread

3 large eggs

1 cup eggnog

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon rum or rum extract

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Butter or non-stick cooking spray (for cooking)

Instructions

Slice the Bread:
Cut the French bread into 1-inch thick slices.

Make the Custard:
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, eggnog, vanilla extract, rum (or rum extract), and nutmeg until smooth.

Preheat Pan:
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt butter or coat with non-stick spray.

Dip & Cook:
Dip each slice of bread into the eggnog mixture, coating both sides.
Place on the hot skillet and cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Add more butter/spray as needed.

Serve:
Plate the French toast and top with your favorites—syrup, butter, powdered sugar, or a dusting of cinnamon.

Notes

Use day-old bread for best absorption and texture.

For a stronger rum flavor, use real rum instead of extract.

Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg for an extra holiday touch.
