This Dairy Free Almond and Egg Nog French Toast Casserole with egg nog glaze is perfect for feeding a crowd this holiday season!
I am proud to be partnering with Silk to bring you this tasty holiday recipe!
As I have said before, I just LOVE easy breakfast recipes! You know, because I am not a morning person. So if it ain’t easy . . . it ain’t happening.
But really I guess I’m not just limited to breakfast. My recipes are almost exclusively quick and easy. I enjoy cooking and baking, I just don’t have hours upon hours to spend in my kitchen.
That is why french toast casseroles are so great. No need to stand over your stove flipping slices of bread while everyone else is relaxing or having fun. And this Dairy Free Egg Nog French Toast Casserole is perfect for feeding your hungry family this holiday season!
Silk has a variety of seasonal flavors that are dairy-free and egg-free. Choose between Original Silk Soy Nog, Pumpkin Spice Silk Almond Nog or Original Silk Almond Nog. It is a great way to enjoy a traditional winter treat with less fat and calories!

Almond and Egg Nog go together really well! I would’ve never thought to combine the two.
The almonds add flavor and crunch to this breakfast casserole.
The glaze. Oh my. The glaze is absolutely amazing and brings this dish together. Don’t skimp on the glaze.
I love all the nutmeg in holiday recipes. Why do I not use more nutmeg throughout the year? I should start.
Fresh grated nutmeg takes this breakfast casserole to the next level.
Now that is my kind of holiday breakfast!
And this is what you get. A moist (but not mushy), soft, sweet, donut-like texture with a balance of egg nog and almond flavor.
Get yourself a slice of this casserole and top with a dusting of cinnamon powdered sugar.

I seriously can’t WAIT to find this Silk egg nog, this will be among the first things getting made with it!

I love that we have fantastic dairy free options like this Silk Nog!
Amber says
is this something that can be prepped the night before and refrigerated, so it’s ready to pop into the oven in the am?
Nicole Harris says
Yes, you can do it that way 🙂
Joann says
This looks delicious! When you say a large loaf of French bread, can you tell me how many cups of cubed bread you mean or the weight of the loaf?
Nicole Harris says
I believe the standard store bought loaves are around 16 ounces.
Samantha says
Has anyone successfully prepared this the day before and it taste okay the following morning?!
Nicole Harris says
I haven’t prepared it the day before. The only concern would be the bread getting too soggy. But, I know that some people prefer it that way 🙂
