Thick, sweet slices of Paleo Eggnog French Toast that make an easy gluten free breakfast or brunch on the weekend!
I suppose it might have been a good idea to give you this French toast recipe before the holidays so you could make it for breakfast… but I’m a champion for the underdog, so naturally, I had to come up with a way to make the middle winter months seem exciting (since they usually get a lot of hate for being grey and cold.)
Before we talk more about French toast, I need us to talk a moment to appreciate that the worst/most addicting/most cringe worthy/best show is back: The Bachelor. You better believe my dog and I will be religiously watching this season together. Obviously he’s the one who is really into the show…I’m just indulging him.
I (and by I, I mean Hudson) was so pissed at Hannah for picking the loser dude as the winner last season. We ALL knew Tyler and Peter were the only good options. If they have her come back on this season I hope he kicks her off right away. I’d pay to see that.
Ok back to French toast. If you gave me a choice between pancakes and French toast I’d go and make waffles instead. But since I don’t own a waffle maker and I had a loaf of Paleo bread burning a hole in my freezer and some coconut milk eggnog to use up, this Eggnog French Toast seemed in order.
And at the end of the day, if I could have waffles and French toast too, I’d be cool with that.
Tips for making this Paleo Eggnog French Toast:
Use good, thick slices of bread and let them really soak up the French toast mixture.
I used So Delicious dairy free eggnog in this—I highly recommend it!
