Mmmm, French toast and egg nog: two great tastes that taste great together. Baking is easier than frying and you use less fat, which helps make up for the fat that there is egg nog in the mix. Really great. Easy. It was a perfect Christmas breakfast. Used a jelly roll pan and the loaf soaked up all the sauce overnight.

This is a very delicious dish. I made a similar dish like this- it was very good. Try this-instead of syrup, make hot cranberry sauce.

All I gotta say is that the Killian family now has a new Christmas morning tradition. My sister, who (like me) adores eggnog and I made this with sourdough bread and low fat eggnog. *Amazing*. If anyone is worried about 'eggnog first thing in the morning', it blends well with traditional maple syrup and side fares. Delish! *Update: I made this again, using SilkNog, and it was equally wonderful. I upped the spices just a bit but everyone at the table agreed it did not have a soy milk taste. It would be great for anyone who can't have milk.

This was a fantastic treat. I have actually made it twice. The first time I used Texas toast, I myself didn't care for it, everyone else loved it. The second time I used French Bread and it was SUPERB!! Will make often in the future.

This is delicious and easy to make. The recipe didn't say what to do with the butter so I justed added it into the mixture rather than drizzling it on at the end. This worked out fine. (I submitted a recipe correction to include adding the butter into the mixture when I submitted my review). I also sprinkled extra cinnamon over the top. My oven tends to cook a little fast so it only took 17 minutes. It needs to be watched after 15 minutes; it's easy to overbake. My family really enjoyed it. Tastes very rich and fattening. Wonderful breakfast for eggnog lovers.

Oh yum! I made this for Thanksgiving morning and we all loved it. The only change was that instead of French bread I used brown sugar cinnamon bread (from Pepperidge Farm) and did two layers since the bread is not an inch thick. With the leftover batter, I soaked some more bread in it and then baked it in my waffle iron, which is how I usually make my French toast (French toat waffles). This is such a delicious recipe. We're planning on making it for Christmas breakfast also.

What a yummy dish! I made this for a Christmas Brunch and it was so good! The egg nog adds a really unique taste. I used Failproof French Bread (Bread Machine) for the french bread. Thanks for posting this!

These were tasty, but I did have problems with the execution. I cut the loaf of French bread into 1" slice as written but all slices did not fit into my 9x13 Pyrex glass dish, so I had to use a jelly roll pan so they would all fit. I poured the reaming mixture on top (which was a lot) and the bread didn’t absorb all of it in the morning. I baked the French toast exactly as directed and since the bread didn’t absorb all the liquid it ended up burning and all the toast stuck to the pan and burned. I managed to salvage a few piece for my husband and I. My husband asked if I had made Cajun style French toast (ha-ha). Despite it being mostly burned I could still taste that it had a good flavor. I didn’t have rum so I used Amaretto and I used 1tsp of pumpkin spice. I think next time I will cut the batter amount in half and just dip, fry and bake them in 350 to get them cooked all the way through as I usually do. Thanks for posting.
