Eggnog French Toast Bake Ingredients:

• 1 loaf of gluten free bread, cubed (we used Canyon Bakehouse bread)
• 1 ½ cups low fat eggnog
• ⅔ cup liquid egg whites (plain or vanilla work!)
• 1 teaspoon liquid vanilla monk fruit sweetener
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon plus extra for topping
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 4 figs, halved

How do you make Eggnog French Toast Bake?

The recipe is pretty simple, as most of the cooking time is waiting for it to bake in the oven. It’s easy to prep the ingredients for Eggnog French Toast Bake and only takes 10 minutes. Grab your cubed gluten-free bread, low fat eggnog, liquid egg whites and other ingredients so we can get started! 

Get a casserole dish (at least 9x11) ready with cooking spray. Then place cubed bread to a medium mixing bowl. Grab another mixing bowl (a small one) to whisk together the eggnog, egg whites, monk fruit sweetener, and cinnamon. Pour that mixture over the cubed bread and gently toss to coat the bread. Pour this mixture into the casserole dish, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.

When you’re ready to cook, preheat your oven to 350ºF and cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes, remove the aluminum foil, and then bake for another 10-15 minutes to lightly brown the tops of the French toast.

Remove the dish from the oven and dust French toast with extra cinnamon. Let it cool for 5 minutes at room temperature and enjoy the sweet-smelling aroma that fills the air. Serve, store, and devour once the food is cooled.

How to portion Eggnog French Toast Bake?

Slice the baked Eggnog French Toast into 4 slices to portion, placing it neatly in a Single Compartment Meal Prep Container. Add some maple syrup in a plastic cup, and voila!

Other tips for making Eggnog French Toast Bake:

• Your bread can stay fresh if it is a day or two old. Make sure there’s no mold on the bread.
• Choose a flavored maple syrup to go the extra mile!
• If your belly is okay with gluten in your bread, experiment with challah, brioche, and french bread for the French Toast.
• Preheat your pan so that from the start, your batter doesn’t have time to soak and seep into the bread.
