A real timesaver when you have a houseful of guests or just don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I found this recipe in Company's Coming for Christmas cookbook and it has become a year-round family favourite. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, melted |
7 large eggs |
2 cups milk |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 loaf french bread, cut into 1 inch slices |
confectioners' sugar, sprinkle (optional) |
Directions:
1. Pour melted butter into bottom of baking sheet to coat.
2. Beat next 7 ingredients together well.
3. Dip both sides of each bread slice into egg mixture. Pour any remaining mixture over slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Can be frozen at this state.
4. Uncover and bake in 400 F oven on bottom rack for 25 to 30 minutes.
5. Place on rack to cool.
6. Dust with icing sugar when warm, if desired.
7. NOTE: Commercial eggnog can be substituted for milk for a richer, or more festive, flavour.
