Ingredients

  • 8 slices brioche bread
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (plus extra for sprinkling)
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1⅓ cups Hiland Spring Eggnog
  • 4 tablespoons Hiland Unsalted Butter, divided
  • Toppings for serving

Directions

  • Place the bread slices on a wire rack and let them dry out in the fridge overnight. This helps them absorb more of the delicious eggnog mixture.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until smooth. Pour in the eggnog and whisk until fully combined.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Let it melt until foamy, then wait for the foam to subside.
  • Dip two slices of bread into the eggnog mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let any excess batter drip off.
  • Place the soaked bread in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes, gently moving them around to prevent sticking, until golden brown.
  • Sprinkle a little granulated sugar on top of each slice, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes until caramelized and golden.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining butter and bread slices.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
