Day 5

Kathy's Xmas French Toast Pudding :)

The Holiday Collection- This is my OWN creation- YEAH!!  This is a RICH dessert or for breakfast!!   1 pkg dried bread cubes (without seasoning) 1- 1 1/2 cups eggnog  Place bread cubes in a square greased baking dish. Add eggnog to bread cubes. Cover with saran wrap and place in the refrigerator.  Let set for 2-3 days (to allow eggnog to soften bread and absorb flavor of eggnog).  After breadcubes have rested, mix up the breadcube mixture and add aprox 1 cup of craisins. Mix well. Flatten mixture back in pan. Now mix up 2 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 TB melted butter and a sprinkle of nutmeg in a small container. Pour mixture over the bread cubes and craisins. Spread an extra TB melted butter over top of soaked mixture. Make sure all the bread is soaked in with the new egg mixture. Bake at 350 degrees on med shelf for 40 min for a denser texture, for a lighter texture put on lower rack. Should look golden brown and a little juicy. Let cool. Can eat warm or cold. Optional: For extra richness- pour eggnog over the hot or cold pudding. Can also heat the eggnog with the pudding. Crasins can be mix through it or placed on top. A plan ahead dish-allow a few days of preparation.
