Eggnog French Toast

By: Barbara Nowakowski 
"There's no last-minute fussing with this breakfast or brunch favorite. Slices of French bread soak up the egg-cream mixture overnight. A little nutmeg and rum extract give the dish its sweet eggnog-like taste. -Barbara Nowakowski North Tonawanda, New York"
