Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 1 loaf french bread (OR brioche, cut into 2'' cubes)
  • 3 cup Silk soy nog (OR eggnog)
  • 6 tbsp brown sugar
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp rum extract (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • pinch nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup walnuts (OR pecans, chopped)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
  • powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instruction

  • Line or spray a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place the cubed bread inside, set aside.
  • In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk together the nog, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, rum extract, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour the mixture over the cubed bread. Cover with with foil and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Before turning on the oven, in a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and nuts. Pour the melted oil or butter and mix until small clumps form. Sprinkle over the top of the french toast bake.
  • Place in the oven and turn oven on to 350 degrees. This is necessary if you're using a glass dish so that it doesn't shatter going into a hot oven. If you're using a metal pan, place it directly into the hot oven. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked throughout. Place a piece of foil over the top (you can reuse the one from before) at the 30 minute mark to prevent over-browning. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
